This is a new screenwriting group that found itself without an organizer.  Pending her blessing, I am tentatively stepping up to create the official Long Beach Chapter of The Screenwriters and Filmmakers Workshop. The Screenwriters and Filmmakers Workshop functions under the banner of OCFilmWorks, an Orange County collaborative writing and filmmaking group.  Ideally, we will offer not only script critique but the chance to make independent films throughout Southern California. Once I have the fi …

This is an initial invitation to people who want to collaborate to create short films here in the eastern area of Los Angeles County.  One of my film professors joked that film industry folks who work and live in Hollywood don't know anything that exists 'east of Pasadena", that Pasadena is "the edge of the known world" to them...similar to the people in Christopher Columbus' time who thought the world was flat and that if you sailed too far, you'd go off the edge into the unknown abyss...

We meet every two weeks at the Denny's located at 1010 Alameda Ave at 7:30.

We're starting this group in the hope to find other filmmakers looking to start making movies today. Our goal is to become the next Spielbergs. Yes, that is what you read. Spielgerg did not get where he is by thinking about making movies but by making them. Whoever said that we needed Hollywood's permission to become filmmakers, was dead wrong. In this day and age all you need is passion, determination, a good story that people will care about and a digital camera. Seriously it’s that simple, we …
