I just wrapped a week as a "scripty" for an independent short film (30 minutes, probably), and I REALLY liked it. I enjoy acting, but this appealed to the more analytical portion of my mind... and I'm thinking I might be able to earn my crust on it, at least eventually. Of course, I won't really know how well I did until the editor and director meet up and try to cut the thing.
I have a couple of contacts I need to e-mail privately, but if anyone has ideas or leads on learning more about this work and getting a good rep for it, please do share. Thanks!
