An auspicious event today – I received the share certificates and consent form to be a director in Contained The Film Pty Ltd from Andy, and signed them! Every little step makes it feel more tangible, more in reach. Man, I hope we can deliver the goods. I hope we can deliver on the promise of our screenplay and I hope that audiences embrace the film. Ultimately, you just don’t know what will happen, but I so want to look back at the copies of those signed documents years from now and say to myself – that’s where it started, that’s where our new lives were cemented.

A big step towards achieving that is our first cast read-through of the screenplay. Not the actual cast of the film, obviously – we haven’t started casting yet – but with some amazingly talented actors to ‘perform’ our pages at a round table set up so we can see how it plays. I’ll be setting it up in the next two weeks and I cannot wait.
