Short Film Written: Help Wanted
February 12, 2011
I wrote a short film many years ago. I think it’s funny. Unfortunately due to one reason or another, I never got round to doing anything with it. So this morning I thought ‘Why not ask Twitter if they want to make it with me?’
I’ve not given this any serious thought. I mean it’s Saturday; I’ve only just made myself a cup of tea.
Anyway, the idea is that I attach the script, you tell me what you think – and, more importantly, what you think you might be able to contribute to it – and we take it from there.
No money is involved. At all. It’s more about giving people a chance to be involved in the filmmaking process. For no money, I must stress this. Nothing.
The film is called ‘A Man Cuts Down a Tree and it has Consequences’. I’d quite like to play ‘Jon’.
It’s a bit silly but I hope you enjoy it.

Wow! Interesting indeed!
Do you have the necessary gear for filming it? And a tree to be cut down?
I run a writing group that crits quite a few screenplays, as well as involving a few filmmakers. We shot 5 last year and are always looking for new projects too… not sure if I’m the technical whizz you’re looking for but my filmmaker friends probably could pass on the details to their filmmaker friends, etc…

I love it! I will be of no use whatsoever, other than to applaud from the sidelines and tell people I always knew it was brilliant. Best of luck to you!
Thank you very much for the response! (And sorry for the delay in replying.)
I like it!
That sort of thing?
Well, positivity always helps I guess. Thank you! (Sorry for the delay in replying.)
Intrigued by your plan and approach.
Look forward to hearing from you.
