Lesbian Cops: The Movie! is an irreverent (tongue firmly in cheek) web series for those who like Super Troopers, Lethal Weapon, Bad Boys etc. I am a co-creator/writer/producer/actor in the project. Lots of talented people involved and we just added screenwriter/actress Guinevere Turner (American Psycho and The L Word). Kevin Smith donated to our Kickstarter campaign as well. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLC6F4857FFFD58223 Supplemental videos can be seen here. http://www.youtube.com/user/FirouzFarhang/videos

Hi Scott, I'm a long-time reader and also used to contribute regularly on the old GITS forum. You also featured one of my short films, AT LEAST THE DEVIL IS HONEST, on the blog, along with an interview with me, all of which I'm still very thankful for! I've recently completed a new short film called I'M SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT HENRY, which recently played at the Cannes Film Festival as an official selection of their Short Film Corner. I got to go to Cannes with the film, which was a fantastic experience. Anyway, the film is available to view online now. I think the story of the process from script-to-screen may also be interesting for your readers, because we had a rehearsal period, during which we changed quite a lot of things that really made the movie work much better. This has become my go-to process now, because I am the writer and director of my projects, so I write a script that I expect to change a lot. I approach rehearsal as a re-writing session, and find that it's the perfect time to see what can be cut (I'm a fan of cutting dialogue down when I can), and what can be expressed through blocking instead of dialogue. If anyone were to compare the script to the finished film, I think they'd likely agree that the finished film feels fuller than the script, even though the script contains a significant amount of dialogue that didn't end up in the film. You can find the finished film here: http://vimeo.com/38908439 And you can find a PDF copy of the script here: http://mattwriteswords.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/im-so-sorry-to-hear-about-henry.pdf The most valuable things that we discovered during rehearsal/production that was not in the script were: a tear that runs down Addie's cheek that reveals so much without a word, expressive blocking and camerawork, replacing some maudlin dialogue with an outburst of laughter, and ending the film with an unnerving coughing fit. These are things that I would never even think to write, but they make the film work. Anyway, I hope you'll find the film interesting and consider sharing it on the blog. Also, I'm currently editing together my next short film, called IT FELT GOOD TO HAVE THIS PAIN. There's a trailer here: http://vimeo.com/41858552 and a Facebook Page for it here: http://www.facebook.com/itfeltgoodtohavethispain which you can "like" in order to follow what's happening with that film. Thanks so much, Scott, for all that you do! Your blog has meant a lot to me over the past few years. - Matt

Hey Everybody, Please check out my film, "Burn". A very short thriller I wrote and directed last year with Jessalyn Haefele producing, Kyle Klütz shooting and starring Tim Abell and Andrew Sheffield. I'd love to know what everyone thinks! https://vimeo.com/20155233

Hi Scott! Dawn of the Lemons is a short I wrote and co-produced for a 72 hour contest. We had to incorporate 3 items: A lemon, a drunk uncle, and disaster strikes. http://FunnyOrDie.com/m/6kjo
