Promising Script needs Collaborators

Saturday, March 6th, 2010

Hello To One & All!

I am looking for a director to help me launch a short comedy/love story based on my personal experiences within my American/Hispanic relationship.

I have written a screenplay, it is copyrighted and I have had friends in Mexico who are lifetime directors, stage managers for Televisa giving me the okay to run the short as the material looked good to them, just needed some polishing.

This right now is a no budget project but if the film were to net even 1 cent, I’ll split it with all who may participate!  I also am good at begging, pleading and stealing necessary funding!!!

The film expresses the stresses of the first meeting, the fun and love that comes from being apart of a grand Catholic family and the bonds of “Spanglish” where using one word with just a hint of error in a sentence can spell  disaster.

This is intended to be for all ages and and all walks of life.  I want it truthful, light and fun.

If you may be interested, please call Tony Bradford at 757-854-0667 or skype me at waltana02_AT_msn-dOt- com, personal email ditto!

And no, I do not stare at goats!

President Hunter Thomas outlined her goal for at least four educational events in the region this year.   Members learned about this month’s  Career Expo at ODU,  as well as an upcoming workshop with a major West Coast casting director visiting the area.

Hampton Roads Film Office director Jeff Frizzell
charted the progress of film incentives in the General Assembly, as well as sharing an opportunity to work on a Discovery Channel project filming on the Peninsula with those members attending the gathering.

VPA Treasurer Alfred Shapiro reported on the Charlottesville Premiere Party held on Monday, awakening a competitive spirit in the Southeastern Chapter. The meeting concluded with a hard fought Oscar night trivia contest, where one member’s knowledge of obscure ’80’s music videos won her concert tickets

Election over? Hardly. Attention VPA members!

Yes, the VPA has been successful in the last legislative session. No, our work here is not done. In conjunction with Advantus Strategies, we managed to pass a revenue producing bill. Considering these economic times, that was huge.

Now we have the opportunity to continue the process as we move forward to the elections this fall. We will be electing a new governor, and that means we’ve already begun talking with candidates about their views and their needs. They need volunteers no matter which party they are from.

That’s where you come in.

Speaking for myself and Terry Stroud (VPA Chairman and past president) and Advantus, we strongly suggest you check out the various candidates now and then knock on the door of the campaign that suits you best. AND when you do, please make sure to make it clear you are a VPA member (if you are not yet a amember, please join!) and work inside the film industry so they know later that we played a great part in their success. As Terry Stroud said, it’s a great way to develop a lasting relationship when the candidate is elected.

So remember, no pressure here. Just a suggestion to see if you can volunteer. Thanks for considering this activity on our behalf!
