Fall Term Commences!

With the initial pitch meeting out of the way, a new cycle of workshop and senior project classes is moving forward.  Remember to send me blog links immediately for where you'll be writing about your script progress.  Get started on your initial development work and e-mail me if you have any questions.

Summer Development

As the hazy days of summer float by, don't forget that fall term is just over the horizon.  For some of you, that means the start of Senior Project, your capstone to your studies at Drexel.  While you're chilling by the pool, you should be using your downtime to develop the story you want to work on for your final script.  It's never too early to start working.  Always be in development!

Done!

Another academic year winds to its close.  All the scripts are read, all the grades entered.  Graduation takes place this afternoon.

Congratulations to all the SCRP Seniors on completing a challenging year.  Best of luck!

The End Is Nigh

This is the beginning of week 10, everyone.  Seniors, any draft you want me to read before you graduate is due in my mailbox by Friday, 5:00 PM.  After that, I won't be accepting new material.

I'd like to schedule one last individual meeting with everyone during week 10 or finals week, so e-mail me your availability.

Thanks for all the hard work, everyone.  This is the home stretch!

Week 3 Deadline

Reminder to seniors in the 3rd term of their capstone projects:

Deadline for your next draft is Friday of Week 3.

New Term -- Off To The Races

Greetings to anyone starting the workshop process for the spring/summer cycle of classes.  I hope to see most of you at the first meeting, scheduled for next Tuesday morning, 10:00 AM in the small screening room.  If you're on co-op or have a scheduling conflict, please remember to do two things:

1. Send me a 1-2 paragraph pitch for the story you'll be writing.
2. Send me a link to your personal blog for the class, as per the syllabus.

If you don't make it to the pitch meeting, I'll be e-mailing you the class syllabus within a few days.  Feel free to contact me or your individual instructors if you have any questions.
