For instance, the end of the second act should be the point where the protagonist can no longer go back to their former lives, but they are too afraid to go forward....
It’s been a very busy week with premiere for The Assassin; Tropfest in Northbridge Piazza and the Perth Film Network Party. It’s so great to watch so many outstanding films and to socialise with so many wonderful people. Lots of fun.

The teaser for Everyday Hero has just dropped. I’m really looking forward to seeing this. The cast and crew were excellent. Loads of fun.
