I live! Let’s hear it for Chinese dirt and sticks! I was feeling great within a couple of days but I gotta tell ya, dirt and sticks don’t taste as good as it sounds.
I met Patrick yesterday and we got to work on our underwater ghoststory. We came up with some great stuff. I’m loving it. Gonna start an outline soon and when we get a solid story we’ll go back and pitch Josh. We’re calling it “Narcosis”. That’s what happens to divers when they go too deep and the Nitrogen gets into their blood stream. Makes them…drunk for a lack of better words. You can see things. Hullucinate. It’s gonna be great.
Today I met with Amada Cohen and experienced another of my worst meetings ever. They want to do “I Know What You Did Last Summer in 3D”. Lord help them. I don’t want to do that and I told her so. I told her I was simply pitching the best story I could think of and if they wanted to go 3D then sobeit. But she didn’t get it. She didn’t get anything. I could have pitched my cats and gotten more response.
I flipped the story on its head. I pitched, “I know what “they” did last winter”. I haven’t heard but I’m certain I didn’t get the job and as far as I’m concerned this was the biggest waste of my time since I started doing this for a living.
