WRITING a script, making dinner for 24 both have eery similarities to dreaming up a house and getting it built. There are a hundred or more people that’ll help you with both, and as a developer, you get to cherry-pick the best parts. There is magic that happens when they come together on tone, color and timing. No straight lines, (pun intended for both the carpenter and the screenwriter), and the common theme of them all is longing. Building the house one imagines Led Zeppelin or Pavarotti in the finished Home. Writing the script, one imagines ‘the nod’ where an audience identifies with something…anything. The chef balances the perfect savory gravy with the lemon curd in the dessert. Step aside folks…we are in the business of imperfect miracles, but all are invited as we cannot do this alone.
