Setting matters

I am so tired of seeing movies set in the same places, even more tired of reading screenplays that are always set in New York, or Tuscany, or LA. A facebook friend sent me this article about where she actually lives and I thought I would share it because it lists many locations that are scenic and would make potentially good settings for films. I will use this quest to find new settings to visit a couple of these beauty spots and make my vacations business trips that are fun. Please read the article and think about how to set your next project somewhere new.

Facebook friends


I am a lover of facebook, and recently, it seems that it's being used not just for social media, but also as a kind of personals column. I get emails from all sorts of men wanting to facebook chat, and find it amusing. This latest one I thought was so 21st Century, and hope that if the gentlemen recognizes his post he will take the compliment! and by the way, I am in the USA!
