I like my drag page, and I'm keeping it, including all the theoretically NSFW content. That's just my sexuality, and it's my way of expressing that (which is a lot safer than random munches and all that). Re: my debates with the Film Commission 1. The Shipwrecked song is best suited to the 2030 context. That's what I designed it for, and in many ways is the reason that musical exists... it crystallised the climate change one. 2. The Plaything is my choice for something to immediately pursue re: spring-summer 2023-2024. It'll take at least 6 months to make, probably more... the Library is too cramped as a location.. it'd all be wide lenses, and I sorta had an RSA vibe in my head. I reckon an empty space and set design is the easier way to do it, plus I've never had that opportunity before, so I'm very keen to design a set. 3. If Michelle Cameron wants the Weeded Out script, then she's more than welcome to buy it off me. She has several trans friends, so I'm sure she could find another one who wants in on my Netflix series idea lol. That way, we widen the production base rather than attempting one at a time. I reckon Meesh has a really solid track record of her own, so if that's what she wants to use it on, then that's fine, but I'm not really keen myself. I realise that it's not a Wellington-specific story, so I'd say that anyone from Auckland who wants that script is welcome to discuss it with me too. August 17 is when you can meet me for real.
