Ripple Filmscript progress
I wrote a filmscript for Ripple to assist the agent in the UK who is trying to interest a producer.
This required me to:
1. Learn Final Draft scripting software
2. Use it to write the first draft of the script
3. Learn Adobe After Effects
4. Use it to create a "teaser" video
5. Complete a rather expensive online course on film-scripting
7. Use what I learned to begin the second draft of the Ripple script Read more of this blog post »

Yet she sailed softly too:
Sweetly, sweetly blew the breeze -
On me alone it blew.”

“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
