In Too Deep
My BF article is up. It has a long rant about Project Greenlight, and talks about some books you can read to really take the right preperatory steps in jumping into comics. First paragraph, and then link below.
This past weekend, there was a marathon of the full season of “Project Greenlight.” This show is the one program that EVERY film and TV industry person I know watches religiously. It’s like watching a train wreck in slow motion, from every possible angle. It satisfies something in industry folk: that feeling of “I know what they’re doing wrong.” That feeling of superiority overcomes the envy of some schmuck getting to make his own movie. But, that being said, there’s something we can all learn from it. John Gulager, the director and de facto star of the show, is all about passion. His reel was raw, filled with a spark, although not necessarily executed to their fullest potential. It can be argued this spark is what made them pick him. At least in part.
