EXT – NIGHT – Mark is clinging to the rigging of a classic sailing ship wearing a pirate costume.

I’ve spent most of my professional career working in professional entertainment, and it doesn’t surprise me at all to know that Zoie would be intimately familiar that kind of business.

INT – DAY – Mark is sitting at his computer..
MARK
And the cast is set. Zoie officially joins the crew permanently. The new year is going to lead to some exciting new adventures for the gang. So sit back and get ready for a new year of Zortic!
CUT TO
INT – DAY – Mark is watching a movie on TV sitting on the sofa with popcorn.
MARK
Yeah, that’s a little variation on a Monty Python gag, but it certainly fits.

I’ve probably mentioned this before, but I really enjoy working without dialogue. It’s not too hard to make it expressive, but it’s an exciting challenge to move the story forward without words. I’m pretty happy with how this does that. And I can guarantee that there aren’t any spelling errors!
CUT TO
EXT – DAY – Mark is sitting in a cardboard box covered with newspapers.
MARK
Yup. That’s what happened. No too hard to figure out, was it. The gang now officially has their first true nemesis.

EXT – NIGHT – Mark is lurking in a dark alley
MARK
As you probably figured out, that’s more than just an ordinary ATM. It’s a full financial access terminal. It can tell you every thing about all of your accounts right down to the amount of money you really do owe your parents over the years.

EXT – NIGHT – Mark is sitting by the side of the road with a “will cartoon for food” sign..
MARK
And as you can see, even other planets can’t help but feel the crunch of the housing market. Or could there be more sinister forces at work?
CUT TO
INT – EVENING – Mark is walking out of the theater
MARK
So, have you read the story? It really is better than the movie. I hope you’ve enjoyed it.
PAN TO
INT – EVENING – Mark throws popcorn at the talking couple who are continuing to talk as the movie starts.
MARK
Hey! Quiet down front!!!
Oh wait! Before you go. I did an interview over at Xcentrics. It was really fun and they’re some great guys over there. So please check it out! And check out what they’re doing with their comic. It’s pretty incredible!

INT – EVENING – Mark is sitting in the theater with a giant tub of popcorn..
MARK
Yeah, that would totally be me. I really do think that every aspect of film making is important and exciting. It’s all part of the show.
