Update On The Choice Script and Reading

 In my zeal for promoting The Choice I forgot to explain what the script/story was about. 

The story is a farce about Heaven and Hell. The main character is caught between a wager between the two forces and must make a decision on whether to be a “glorious lamb” in Heaven or a high ranking denizen of Hell. He’s persuaded by both sides to make a “choice”.

Anyway, the reading will be broken up into two recorded sessions (on the 15th and 22nd of October)! So far, we have got a few heavy hitters to sit in on the reading so it should be interesting!

If you’re interested in seeing and reading the script before or after the reading; the script is on Coverfly.com and open to all members to see.

Be careful because October may be full of surprises!

On OCTOBER 15th and 22nd THE CHOICE Will Be Read Through Zoom Meeting!

THE CHOICE on Coverfly.com 

Currently, if you are interested in reading THE CHOICE you will have to go to Coverfly.com and look it up (I have provided a link above), BUT we will be doing a two-part reading of the script in October on Saturday the 15th and 22nd at 7:30pm. If you are interested in seeing the reading contact me at my email address (nathanwaire@gmail.com) or if you can wait, we will be recording each part of the reading and I will post it on my blog and YouTube channel the following week.

Some intriguing news about the reading is that several media influencers and industry pros are participating as well as viewing the reading. They will be either actively participating or watching/chiming in during the reading. Some have grown with me over the years while the majority are new to how SAPIEN FILMS runs things so it should be really exciting!!!

If you would like to be a part of the reading just contact my email (I can't accept comments on my blog) and I will send you the link once, we get closer to the dates!

Peace ✌

Steve Yank’s The Towen will be at the Highlands Horror Film Festival

 A horror film that I have a producer credit with Steve Yank (who is the director of the film) will be playing and winning an award at the Highlands Horror Film Festival!!! The Towen is the name of the film and can be found on YouTube! It was Steve’s first film but it has been getting attention from a select group of horror fanatics. He did everything in it from the music to directing to casting!!!

Good Luck, Steve and if you’re in or near Highland, NJ on October 8th check out Steve’s film! He’s showing as the last film at the festival!! Should be spooky fun!!!

HG3, *BEEP* , VMA and other updates

Mad shout out to Kayla H. if she can get me some tickets to tomorrow’s VMA!!! I Love that girl even if she can’t get me the tickets!!! Also, shout out to The SIFF and CWA for recognizing *BEEP* and HG3 in their competitions

 

*BEEP* Won Outstanding Achievement (1st Place) Award in The SIFF

 I am so happy that my rewritten script for BOY now called *BEEP* won another award with a prestigious and well-established film festival. Last year, The SIFF (Swedish International Film Festival) gave my script Human Game 3: The Revelation a ranking of Finalist which is pretty darn GOOD, but I felt that I could do better with them so this year when offered the chance to enter a feature length script I jumped at the chance and BOY (no pun intended) did it pay off!!!!

Below are the laurels!!! I truly feel Blessed and grateful to GOD and The SIFF for recognizing my work!

Never give up!!!

Tuesday’s Podcast Was Postponed

 I had planned to talk about everything from Lionsgate moving to Newark to my past dealings with HBO and all the changes in my career that can be found on this blog... But due to technical difficulties with teamblazeeliteaau podcast ( that they didn’t resolve for 37 minutes) the podcast was postponed until next week Tuesday. Apparently, the two gentlemen didn’t know that you can’t have both 5G and WiFi going at the same time for a podcast! So I will keep you posted on my blog for the future updates for the podcast on Instagram with teamblazeeliteaau 

Check back soon 🔜 (like this weekend for details)

HG3 is a Preliminary Finalist in the CWA

 At first I was torn because I didn’t know the status of the script but just last week CWA posted on Coverfly! I wanted to rank higher but at least I made the first cut. I checked their home page and found out that it didn’t go further. I think it has to do with the fact that it is a drama/thriller that is only a half hour long when most scripts of this nature are an hour! I think it is ahead of its time because it would be perfect for streaming or a genre breaking original. 

Anyway, at least I made it into a competition that has some major players looking at the scripts.
