From one of last year's screenwriting WINNERS @ the 10th Anniversary season of FilmQuest, collecting on one of his prizes (coverage from KSC -- an Official Sponsor for FilmQuest). Here are a few words from writer/director, Kent Green: "My short script needed a fresh pair of eyes and some useful guidance. I was too close to the material, and it was getting difficult to tell what was working and what wasn’t, as well as what was essential and what was superfluous. Michael read my script and gave me detailed notes that ranged from simple grammar fixes to questions and insights about the overall themes and atmosphere of the entire story. Besides the wonderful notes, we also had an hour-long phone call. He didn’t come off like he had the answer to everything in my script, more that he wanted me to. And if I didn’t, he’d take the time to tease out the question until I did. We explored some new ideas and possibilities that could help strengthen the storytelling, but he always allowed me to find my way to them, even if he was giving me clues and suggestions on how to get there." Thank you for the kind words, Kent! And best of luck as you continue your writing journey!
