February 2010 Challenge
Hey Everyone, This year, I’m taking on a new daily challenge every month. I’m challenging myself to not judge my ideas and get in the habit of producing a lot of material and letting the best rise to the top. Anyway, for January, I’ve come up with at least one original screenplay logline idea.  So far, so good.  A lot of my movie ideas are terrible.  Several are decent.  But...

benjaminapple: Gift Receipt on Funny or Die - please reblog and vote up if you like it! Featuring myself and Rob Stern, camera work by Veronica Osorio. We shot at Hamlet’s Vintage on Bleecker. This was only the second time I’ve had to get permission to use a location. I’m generally pessimistic about my chances of clearing shoots with owners because they tend get all antsy about cameras, but...
