Scripts for Variety Show

The following are some scripts I wrote for a variety show that I would still love to produce... eventually.

You Have Visitors: This script is the most polished and was a finalist in Regent's short film production cue. Instead of making this Regent chose (wisely) to fund my friend's, John Strong, script White American Jesus - which I produced with John as director. I enjoy this satire simply for its reversal. I would love to say I am a strong proponent for the elderly, but I'm just a hypocrite.

When the Sound of Music Faded: I don't whether this is creative, funny, or just plain stupid. But having just read it after four years in the archive I thought it was funny... and stupid.

Radical Dieting for a Radical Change: My favorite satirical script. Unlike visitors I do feel strongly that the media promotes an unhealthy body image to women in our society and creates an obscene fantasy in men's minds. The end result? Well, read this script; it is a sybolic view of our society's self destruction.

Satan Boe: Another of these scripts I find funny, but I'm obviously not objective. This is a sequel script for a video project John Strong wrote and we both starred in: The Anti-Pro Satan Club.

Been: I don't know if this is as deep as it seems. Its kinda like abstract art. People ascribe to these abstractions more meaning then they deserve. I remember working on this but the document says John Strong wrote it - either way we both had a hand in it.

Yoga101: This was written by me, so I publish it. Notice: I have no good reason to do so. Reader beware.

The Rupture: You can't accuse me of being a rapture obsessed Christians, since I don't believe in it. But then again I understand Eschatology about as well as the next doomsday prophet. See Principles versus Plot.

The White Room (Phil's version): John Strong and I were working on a set of scripts for a variety show that we were developing the year before film school. Of all our scripts we ended up producing three of John's films over the next few years. The White Room, White American Jesus and The Anti-Pro Satan Club. But I was not to be shut out...

The Last Daze: This script was written the night before Labor Day when John, myself and two of our film school friends wanted to go out and shoot a video for the fun of it. Ironically, this video shoot done in the beginning of film school was the only script of mine produced while in film school. Not so ironically it still sits unfinished on my hard drive. But hey, the script is now on the internet.

I do have feature length scripts that I are finished but seeing that I would like to sell or produce them someday I don't want to leave them on the Internet. E-mail me and I'll send you the file as long as you cut me in on it if you sell it.
