Summer for teachers are one of the few perks. Sure, we don’t make a penny between May and September. Aside from that little inconvenience, the days of summer are our own. It’s nice not to read ten screenplays a day, to recharge, which I’m doing by able-bodied best to do.
Meanwhile, I want to leave you Script Gods folk with a podcast I did with the very cool Dave Bullis. It just went up on his site. We did a full hour together on multiple topics like what it was like to direct Calista Flockhart, the making of Chat–my 44k micro-budget that screened in Chicago last month. Also, the state of micro-budget filmmaking today and some tips on how to get yourself out there even without representation. Do you need an agent? Do you need to go to L.A. to start your career?
I hope you’ll find the podcast interesting. Check it out here: http://davebullispodcast.podbean.com/e/episode-111-paul-peditto/
