MY VISION – To write cutting edge, unique, human, soul-inspiring, Oscar-winning scripts that have commercial success and that producers line up to buy and make into multi-million dollar movies. With me in important leading roles. Which makes me a Force in the Hollywood Entertainment industry – as a writer, actor, producer, and director.
WHAT I LEARNED FROM DOING THIS ASSIGNMENT IS… On to Act 2 now! This was a tricky scene for me and it took me an hour. But I am pretty happy with the result. Isn’t that more important than just rushing through it? Though the speed writing is informing my journey by getting me to not take even longer, which I would be doing otherwise. I keep holding speed writing as a goal, and as a control to keep me from dawdling.

My Vision – To create commercial studio size films that move people. To create characters that can live forever and bring moving memories to those that have watched one of my films.
What I learned from doing this assignment – Just trucking along… Tough to not go back and reread all the time and start tweaking.

Cameron Martin’s Next Act 1 Scenes
Vision: Write a story that connects with audiences on a spiritual level, while prioritizing quality time with family.
What I learned doing this assignment is…So, this this going to be a bit of copy and paste in the forums, since I’m writing this after finishing Act 1. I can’t remember the last time I wrote like this. Might’ve been high school or early college. Regardless, it was fun to rediscover my confidence in writing fast and getting a lot of content down. Separate from that, I also discovered, in spite of the amount of crap I put on paper, there’s a lot of ideas I got to explore that my outline didn’t initially convey, and I have a more cohesive story to follow from page to page, all in less than a week’s time. I just kept reminding myself that quality is for another draft. This is about getting words down so that they can be rewritten. So, forget spelling, good scene descriptions, or proper pacing…for now. All that comes in the next draft. Godspeed.

Vision: Professional. Produced. Prolific. Popular
Got sick. Got depressed. Wallowed in it – of course! Decided I would not be ruled by my emotions so just to get this done. I want to put in the time and effort to learn the lessons and have them available to apply to any future writing or life.
