Thanks Zack and eldave! The feedback from here definitely helped.
It's a microbudget shoot, but the director is passionate and has a good vision. And I know I can help to make it sound great with all of my sound design experience. So I'm excited. It was supposed to be shot last July, but Covid shut everything down. So we should be good to go this time!
Congratulations! I was happy to see this and weirded out that it was over three years ago we did a script-swap.
Mine was optioned but not made. But the option runs out soon, so the merry dance will start again. If you have any advice on getting something into production, shoot. And congrats again for getting it done.

Glad to see so many of us still kicking around. Writing is a hard habit to kill.

I wish I did have usable advice, I've had several options expire and it's always back to ground 0.
This connection with the Needles director was made through a mutual acquaintance on Twitter. I've been slowly building writer/filmmaker friends there. (if anyone else is on there, I'm @RodriguezFruit and I try to follow anyone back who talks about writing or movies and is not crazy)

No worries. I'm actually looking forward to getting the script back. I did a page-1 rewrite for the prod-co that had it, and it's now something I really want to send around.
The pandemic struck a 2nd time in when it was supposed to shoot in Sept. One of the leads got stuck in Europe unable to travel. But now... the first day of production starts tomorrow!
