Did you write the script as well? This is really good! I really liked the addition of the boy writing on the whiteboard. It was quiet and poignant."
Christina. I'm glad you liked it. The boy writing was Tyler. Tyler was a very active kid, and just a few years ago he was suddenly diagnosed with Dystonia. If you read about it, you will see what a challenge that is. Tyler is a happy great kid, but his muscles contract out of his control. On the day of filming, he was having trouble speaking, his jaw muscles were clenching. We ended up with that shot of him writing on the board. He did a number of takes, and had us mesmerized. To find out more about Tyler's situation, visit http://www.tylershope.org/, and tweet about it to others.
I want to start with thanking for a great blog.
I am launching a new new service, called Linqers, that enables people to
link in motion picture - nevermore do you have to search on the Internet for
information about which movie the actor starred last time! Linqers will change the way people watch movies.
We are in our start-up phase and need blogs to co-operate with and hope
that you are the one that will follow us on the journey. We are not asking
for any money, just that you spread the word about us and we will make
sure you are linked in every movie that is played with Linqers.
Please look at our website: www.linqers.com for more information or just
email me!
I am hoping to hear from you again!
