This is when ideas for a film are put together. Sometimes that means acquiring the rights to a book, stage play, magazine article, video game, comic book, graphic novel, or directly from the source of a true story. Other times the screenplay has already been written or a pitch for an idea is available. The first thing you would need to do during the development stage is to get a good script. This may not be as simple as it sounds. For every good script, there are countless others that are especially bad. A good script will move you. A bad script will leave you with the feeling that the time lost in reading it will never be given back. Regardless of where the script comes from, you will want to tell a good story. Filmmaking is storytelling. The purpose of 'Hollywood, Unapologetic!' is to positively empower one another and to empower our industry. It is important to engage in discussions that will initiate constructive lines of thought in the hopes to get young people to become thought leaders and to create a positive voice for themselves, their communities, and one another.
