As soon as we work out the kinks with our site new videos will be posted more frequent. We have lots in store for you guys so stay tuned and thanks again. We love you!

Stephen's Blog
I have to write a blog every Monday. I hate Mondays. I hate Mondays with the passion of a virgin on prom night. The only thing I hate more than Mondays is my life. But that is a different suicide note all together. Anyway I’m digressing; being in WriterScene means making movies and having fun. I use it as an escape from my life. There I go again…. We have so many projects coming up that I will be busy for a while and probably won’t have much time to think about anything else. The next couple of months will be very interesting and WriterScene will be posting a lot of great films. This is a great time for us and we have come a long way from the company’s start last year. So stay tuned and stay positive.

Good day People,

Today we are shooting "Dreamer" Written and Directed by Carlos Morales, Executive producer-Assistant Director- Cinematography and make-up by yours truly Cindy Sanabria, 2nd Assistant director-Christina Figueroa, Sound-Biadel Hernandez and Grip/Gaffer work by Yury Delatorre, Starring Stephen Steinberg as "Johnathan", Carlos Morales as "Mark" and Christina figueroa as "Mysterious woman". Featuring Yury Delatorre and Marie Mompointe as passing couple and a special guest appearance with Rie Ito. This short film is the first of an upcoming series Written and Directed by Carlos Morales. Logline for series:If you could solve everyone's problems with your dreams would you? What if their dreams became your worst nightmare? "Dreamer" is a story about a lonely man that finds his dream girl or so it seems...Stay tuned to a WriterScene near you.
I'd like to end this blog for today with a special movie review. Last night I saw "Death Note" a phenomenal Japanese thriller film based on the Comic book series. This film is directed by Shusuke Kaneko. Light is a phenomenal student that comes across a notebook that grants him the ability to take one's life by writing their names in the book. With a case building against him, Light tries to outwit the chase by killing more and more people meticulously. The story escalates and was quite intriguing leaving room for a nice suspenseful ending. If you get a chance to watch this movie, do so. I give the film 5 full reels.

Movie review by Cindy Sanabria
Hey Guys,
Just thought I'd share with you my opinion from the last two movies that I've seen. Just in case you would like to check them out for yourself. The first is a horror/werewolf film titled "The company of wolves" Directed by Neil Jordan. Co-stars Angela Lansbury, David Warner and Stephen Rea. It has the feel of a dark fairy tale focusing on Werewolves. I liked this movie because it has a dreamy effect(they definetly use a lot of filters and lenses). The film was released in 1984 and some of the make-up special effects were pretty cool for that time. I'm a huge fan of werewolf films and I find myself watching them a lot lately because my next feature project involves a story about a werewolf. If I had to rate it I give it 3 1/2 out of five reels.
The second film was George Romero's 1973 horror classic "The Crazies". I must admit when I first saw the preview of the remake in theaters last week, I was stoked to watch the original version. I must say, I was quite disappointed. It was very drawn out. A lot of dialogue and a very annoying military drum beat played throughout the film. I am however looking forward to the remake. I'm a huge Romero fan but I did not like this film. Pretty simple shots. Just in case you're curious about the story, It's about the military trying to contain a virus that had been spread due to a contamination of a toxic substance in a small town's water supply. The virus causes people to go "CRAZY" hence the name. I give it one out of five reels for his efforts.
