We’ve reached the next step in movie production: the who and the where. In today’s chat, Mandy Fabian tells us about the hunt for the perfect location. Plus, we’ll talk about the unusual process of casting a movie during a pandemic.
Making a movie is tough, but getting a movie made is even harder. In today’s chapter, Mandy Fabian will discuss navigating the ups and downs of the Hollywood system to get a movie made. (Don’t worry, this one’s got a happy ending.)
Chapter 9 is all about the written word. Mandy Fabian and I take a pause on our linear journey to discuss the written word. We’ll discuss our writing processes, our feelings about outlines, what to do with strange ideas that drop into your brain and how to take your family drama and make a movie out of it.
