1. Mentorship question: Describe your experience in how you found your mentorship? If you haven't found one yet, describe your experience so far in the search of a mentor.
For the most part, I have been emailing independent production companies, as they are easy to contact and executives within the companies are much more willing to work with me regarding my project. I currently have a couple of prospective mentors, as well as possible interviewees. I have had less difficulty than I did during the summer due to the fact that I am using more websites and resources to find people in the entertainment industry.
2. Research question: What has been your most important article you have read so far and why?
I have been reading published film scripts, which has been extremely beneficial for my research as well as my own work. As I have written a few scripts myself, I am learning about the amount of detail that goes into screenwriting, which helps me tailor how I write. Because screenwriting involves visual writing as much as it involves a story and dialogue, I have found that it is important to observe other writers' works to determine what techniques I can use in my future screenplays.
