What I've Been Up To

My (Sean's) website is woefully out of day -by over a year - so I've started compiling the info needed to get it back in shape.

Looking over the list, I thought some of y'all might be interested in what I've been doing professionally, outside of my day job at WB.

So this is what 2008 looked like, in reverse chronological order (note that this list is only produced gigs, and doesn't include specs or pitches):

Current: Contracted to write two episodes of an animated series. (Name of series and episodes withheld upon producer’s request. Nah, its not that secretive, they’re just funny that way.)

Current: One On One, short film written with Dean Batali, is in pre-production.

Current: Paging Dr. Peter, sit-com length film written with Charity Parenzi, in post-production with Seattle Children’s Hospital.

August: The Call In, sketch, rewritten and performed by Bel Air Drama Department.

August: Paging Dr. Peter, sit-com length film written with Charity Parenzi, in production with Seattle Children’s Hospital.

August: Spoke on the “The Spirituality of Star Wars” panel for Beacon (Los Angeles). (Okay, not a paid gig, per se, but still a lot of fun!)

July-August: Commissioned to write One On One, short film written with Dean Batali, for Stonewater Films.

June: Barbarians at the BBQ, short film, written for and produced by Bel Air Drama Department.

June: Taught “Navigating the Studio System” for Act One: Writing for Hollywood.

May-June: Commissioned to co-write Paging Dr. Peter, sit-com length training film with Charity Parenzi for Seattle Children’s Hospital.

June: Sold three short film pitches to Stonewater Films.

May: We Are One, short doc, written for and produced by Bel Air Drama Department.

April: Who Needs Salt?, short doc, written for and produced by Bel Air Drama Department.

March: “Maundy Thursday Readings,” sketch series, developed for, directed for and produced by Bel Air Drama Department.

February: Taught a series of screenwriting classes for the Castro Valley Christian Writer’s Seminar.

January: My Babysitter Is an Alien, television pilot, goes into production

January: Taught “Literature and Film” at Biola University (Inter-term semester).

Just my past year,

Sean

Were you going to see if they recorded audio of the Star Wars Gig?

I would like to hear that...

There's a series in development up here in Canada called My Babysitter is a Vampire. Great minds...?

Ben -- they did not record the Star Wars panel -- which is a bummer, cuz it was pretty interesting.

David -- "great" minds? Or just commercially minded minds? With the Hannah Montana craze, My Babysitter Is an Alien should be a shoo-in.

I'm not seeing Thai food in SanDiego on that list...
