E pluribus triadum

The presentation went well. Of seventeen concepts presented, nine continue to live and will be developed further (which means taking them to scripts). Once we see which ones work or don’t work structurally, we’ll cull the list down a little more here internally. Then we’ll turn them over to John who’ll give them the once-over for costs (resulting, oftentimes, in another internal cull). The ones that survive the internal cutting will be framed and boarded. If the percentages hold up as they usually do, I expect to be in Chicago in early September presenting six concepts.
From fourteen pages of ideas to -> seventeen concepts presented to -> six scripts to be boarded up to -> two or three that will likely be shot. When I think of the process, I like to imagine myself living in Sparta, tossing the weak children over the cliff’s edge– except with even more wailing and gnashing of teeth.
