As I continue my directing stint on Hell’s Kitchen 8, I’ve also recently finished a new screenplay, my science fiction war epic The Darkest Run, along with a new outline for my new political drama S. Body, for both the silver screen and its little brother.  Later this week, I’ll be posting some notes on my new process for writing… a method I call “the window.”

Also, a star you’ve all seen on a certain, wildly popular CBS show is taking a look at starring in my noir, A Shadow in the Dark, this very moment, but will unfortunately have to remain nameless for now.  If all goes well, I’ll be posting an update when and if a deal is in place.

In other news, my partnership with 1080 inc, with whom I’ve developed several reality shows, is also spearheading development for a film concept I wrote some time ago, involving the future, a nerdy engineer, a devlish computer and… well… I can’t say more than this… it’s wild and kick ass.

Keep your fingers and toes crossed everyone.  The momentum is on my side.

Let’s push the universe to take me to that wonderful, and brutal, place of production.

Pushing on…

If there’s one thing I love more than developing one show… it’s developing FIVE.

After partnering with 1080 Inc. to develop and pitch National Geographic my Reality TV concept, Burnout: The Need for Speed in 2009, it looks like 2010 is going to be packed with even more opportunities.

1080 Inc. and I have inked a new deal this week to develop a slate of five new science and reality shows for the new calendar year.  We’ll be hitting several networks once the packaging materials are complete and the last show outline has been finalized.  Keep your fingers crossed.

On the feature narrative front, my producer Elizabeth Ai and I have put together a table read with a full cast of very talented and trusted actors this weekend to pave the way for a thoroughly polished script of A Shadow in the Dark.  soon, it’ll finally be fit to send to potential above the line attachments.  Budgets and schedules have been completed by my talented line producer, Shadie Elnashai, and I’m excited to be taking this next dive out into the world of sharks.
