Today in Writing 8/5/21

   NOTE: You will see some of these ideas stated in a video entitled "This week in writing 8/1/21-8/7/21" released on 8/8/21. You've been warned. 

Well, I've taken a break from "The Plug!"

To be clear I have still been working on my comic book "Call to Action."

But the reason I'm taking a break from "The Plug" is simply because:

ANOTHER MUSE TOOK HOLD!!

I can't reveal much about this project, but it is an exciting, topical musical (that much I can reveal). 

The past few days I have written a handful of songs and am finished with "Call to Action" Issue 1. 

(I am also 12 pages into Issue 2). 

Still, I will continue to update throughout the week whenever something new in writing comes up!!

Stay tuned for "This week in writing 8/1/21-8/7/21" on 8/8/21!!

Production Journal for 'Roomies' Production (January-July 2023)

Introduction My name is Logan Tyler Smith. Sometime in 2019, when I was getting really into filmmaking (specifically the works of Kevin Smith and Quentin Tarantino, as most film buffs get into), I came up with a title: Roomies. I hadn't really had a full idea at this point, but I knew it would be a good title for a 90s-early 2000 style indie film.  That is, I didn't have a full idea until August 2022.  I fleshed out the idea into a well-formed outline and knew that if I wanted to finally make a feature-length film, this outline would be the way to do it.  At this point in my career, I had only made short films, but I decided it was time to finally make my feature length directorial debut. And after putting together a well-done script, I got to working on preproduction.  Obviously, as you're going to see in the following production journal, the idea evolved and went through some evolution over the course of filming it. Preproduction was mostly where I chose my actors, Bryan

HOW I AM MORE PRODUCTIVE THAN YOU THINK

If you don’t already read this blog (or even know if I exist) you probably don’t believe me: bear with me anyway, as there’s a lesson in disguise.   I’ve had a very productive couple weeks, some days harder than others. I had a pretty lax schedule generally before though; it went something like this: Wake up and drink coffee/eat breakfast Watch videos, movies, listen to podcasts all day every day (MAYBE read a book or article) MAYBE DoorDash deliver or Instacart shop Go to bed Now even though I maintain I’ve been more productive these past couple weeks, I would like to point out my schedule has not changed that much.  Here’s how it goes: Wake up and drink coffee Work on podcast or upcoming videos (schedule changes depending on video) Go for a run (depends on day and time); run or not either way I take a shower, basic hygiene DoorDash or Instacart (again, depends on the day and time) Get writing done (books, screenplays, this blog, I have a lot to write) Watch video

Why I'm Taking a Break from LoganLand Rants

WHY I’M TAKING A BREAK FROM LOGANLAND RANTS by Logan Tyler Smith Hey guys. If you’ve been a longtime viewer of my YouTube channel, you probably know that for the past two or so years (since 2019), I’ve had a movie-based podcast titled LoganLand Rants.  The basic concept of the podcast is that I provide my unfiltered opinions on movies, the good the bad and in-between of my perspective on a given cinematic work. Also you may have noticed I haven’t uploaded in about fa month since posting the last podcast video on the film 21 Jump Street.  And that’s pretty much where I’m comfortable leaving it for now. Part of this blog will be my reasons why I’m taking a long hiatus from LoganLand Rants.  I’m spending my time filmmaking/writing.  I’m sure my friends and family watching this video know this, but for those of you who don’t know, in high school I wanted to be a fantasy novelist. While that dream of fantasy writing has faded a little bit, the creative urge simply hasn’t gone away
