Faith(Screenwriter): I almost feel like I should whisper this, but our script seems to be finished. Our esteemed Director and our lead talent are all on board as written.

Tina: So how are you filling your time is the script is complete?

Faith: Robert has me on speed dial if he has a change of heart. Otherwise I just come for these meetings and for filming.

Tina: Selena, how is Faith compensated?

Selena: She was paid a set fee for the script. That contract requires her to attend update meetings like this with sufficient notice as well as be available to work through any rewrites that are requested. Once we wrap shooting her obligations shift to promoting and marketing the film. Her payments are made at milestones: signing of the deal, wrap and release.

Robert: She got sweeter deal than I did.

Tina: Take that up with your agent. Are you comfortable with the script? Will you run with it as written or are there still elements you want to see changed?

Robert: I’m planning to shoot the story and script as they are now. This is a funny film most of the will be in the delivery and shooting, the script isn’t as big a deal.

Tina: You realize without a screenplay we’d have no use for you, right? The script is a very big deal.

Robert: What I meant is the story is solid, but the humor can be lost if not delivered properly. I plan to show it properly so the humor comes across.

Tina: What is your shooting schedule?

Selena: As I mentioned it is all in the Los Angeles area: March 29^th at the studio first for a week. We will shoot at area locations the 6^th through 10^th of April.

Tina’s head is spinning with the travel she’ll be doing in March and April. They wrap up the meeting and Tina bolts out of the studio to pick up Angelica. She is thankful that Robert’s project is shooting locally. She smells trouble with this one. Angelica is all smiles at seeing her Mommy. Tina is tired, but wants to spend some fun time with the baby and to clear her own head so they head to the park and stay for an hour. At home Tina gets the baby cleaned and ready fro bed before dinner. She is delighted to see that Kit has made sure there were leftovers from the cookout. Angelica eats well and Tina enjoys her plate as well. After dinner clean up is quick and Tina boots up the laptop and calls Bette using the webcam.
