The Deep got recruited by Def-Con-5 and promptly met:

1. An indie film producer.
2. A cameraman-slash-DP.
3. Two actresses with martial arts training.

They agreed to work with Deep on an indie action flick set in Vancouver, basically one written to their strengths — a career vehicle.

Today he gave me the elevator pitch. He dug my writing style at Praxis, and wants me to be the “dark humor guy”. It turns out that withering sarcasm is a job skill.

A few notes:

1. They say that real entertainers create their own work. Taa-daa!
2. We have a producer: I can relax. This is huge for me because I’m always the business guy.
3. Starting today (fuck New Years) I’m writing every day, like I should have been for the last few months.

Cautious optimism is warranted. I acknowledge that this is just a random assortment of indie movie types, but so was American Zoetrope, once.
