Soon to Be a Major Motion Picture...

There's a big item on my to-do list.  It's been on my list since I was 5 years old, and it's about time I got around to crossing it off.  The biggest goal of my life has always been to write and direct a feature film. Not an easy goal, to be sure, but it seems that patience and time has finally started to pay off.  This is a "pitch reel" for a script I wrote called "It Is What It Is," a romantic comedy set in Birmingham.  It follows a young couple, Josh and Lara, about to be married.  After a 4 year engagement, and despite some last minute jitters, they are finally taking the plunge.  To celebrate, their friends decide to take them out for a wild night on the town.  But when Josh's old college roommate, Terry, comes into town, secrets from Lara's past come to light, changing everything.  I've written other scripts over the years, but this one was designed specifically from the ground up to be shot for a limited budget.  It is our hope that this trailer will help us raise the funds we need to shoot the actual film within the next few months.  Stay tuned for more updates, including when we will be posting the trailer to Kickstarter.com and how you can help us make this film a reality.  But for now, enjoy the trailer.  It features some incredibly talented folks in front of and behind the camera that will be helping us make the real deal.  Just FYI,  a word or two is NSFW.  Enjoy!
