Real Autumn in New York is fast approaching. If you’re anything like me, that means it’s time to work. Come hell or high-tide, the AAFilmLab is committed to getting work out in the coming New Year.

We’re looking for works to showcase in an upcoming Short Film Screening to be held in 2006 so all members should dig up those films you’ve always wanted to screen and contact us. All others on the brink, there is no better time than now to take that first step - we’re here to help. Pre-production will begin for the first short to be released in 2006. All writers should be preparing for the next competition which is slated for January ‘06.

We have an editing workshop coming up in the next few months. If you’re interested in attending this introduction to editing, please let us know. There is also another Roundtable in November which I’m sure you’ll all be delighted to attend. All details are forthcoming.

Upcoming Workshop: 10/19/05

• Script formatting - we will discuss basic screenplay format
