Hey, Cyrus Sales! I'm turning my short script Ghost Roach into an adult animated series and rewriting a live-action feature script this week.
My goals this week are outline the animated series and finish rewriting a draft of the feature script.
I don't need help right now, but thanks!
I can give screenwriting advice.
What about you?

Maurice Vaughan - dope goals to have this week. What is your animated series about?
As for me. I'm currently working on a thanksgiving animation.
I'll be getting the script in the correct format and recording the rough voicing for animatic to start next week.
As of right now, I think I'm good.
I can give feedback on animation line work and sound design (mixing and mastering too).

Thanks, Cyrus Sales. The logline for the Ghost Roach short script is "After moving into their new house, a closed-minded dad tries to get rid of a ghost roach that haunts him and his teenage daughter."
A Thanksgiving animation sounds interesting! I'm rooting for you to reach your goals! Is it a feature or series?

What am I currently working on? Well, I just finished the pilot to my animated series. And I may start on episode two this week IDK. I am still trying to get funding and so far that has not been a fun ride at all. I really need to speak with someone in distribution but am not having any luck there. I had a pitch sesh today for a live action series but the hotel internet cut out JUST AS I WAS GETTING ON and when I got back on the exec was gone. (Her last name was Wu) and yes I have sent an email to stage 32 about it. Hopefully they will be able to help me though I don't know about turnaround. I hope I didn't waste $35. ugh. TBH I don't know if I would be able to help anyone in the lounge right now but if someone asked I would be willing to try.
Stage 32 has a Distribution Lounge where you could ask for advice on finding distribution, G.R. Barnett. www.stage32.com/lounge/distribution

Maurice Vaughan is the ghost an actual roach? The animation is a short, micro? animation. Something to go on social media, nothing too complex or crazy. We are focusing on more short form content for social media.

G.R. Barnett congrats on finishing the pilot for your animation series. Funding is always an interesting ride, I've been doing research this year into funding, pitching, etc. Sorry to hear about the hotel internet. Hopefully it all gets resolved. What is your series about?
Yeah, the ghost is an actual roach, Cyrus Sales. Ghost Roach is a micro-budget live-action short script right now. I was gonna turn it into an adult animated series, but I might keep pitching it as a short script or turn it into a feature script (live-action or animated).
Looking forward to seeing the Thanksgiving animation!

Maurice Vaughan a lot of different options to choose from, I look forward to future update on how things go with your animation. Absolutely, once it goes live on social I'm going to share it here as well.
