It’s been an intense few months juggling teaching, movie making and motherhood…  I’m taking the next couple of months of from teaching, but will def hustling the movie pretty hard.  We are still touring the festival circuit, but we are signing with a great sales agent and are going to start working on a push to sell the movie.  Like every part of the filmmaking process, it’s will be slow, but something good will happen.  So…  As we work on the sale of Raspberry Magic, I’ll be getting to know my little one Amani a bit better, and working on other projects.  I have a new movie I really, really want to make.  It’s another character driven piece which I believe could be very fun.  I’ve written the script, but I’m going to spend some time this summer making revisions, and thinking through some of the visual ideas.  Next time I make a movie, I really want to have an even more clear idea of the shots and overall visual palette.  I’ve also other screenplays I would like to work on.  There are two in particular that I’m ready to hash out on paper, and one that needs quite a lot of research…  We’ll see how those come together…
