it just may not be a very good one
Recent media attention has focused on the plight of a lady in Paris who I would tend to agree shouldn't really have been fired off the bat as it seems to appear she was. There is now talk of her getting a book or even film deal, and it makes a person wonder if everyone who generates a certain amount of newsprint will get a book deal and whether we shouldn't think more of the trees.

Or make it
half a page
"Significantly, however, one of the first IFB initiatives introduced under the Perry regime encourages applications for scripts at the early ideas stage. "It's the way I'm used to working," he says. "Most of what is submitted here for development is already in script form, and I find that strange. Now a submission can be a few pages, maybe even less. It could be half a page and a conversation - a concept, the description of an idea. You can tell a lot from that."
PERRY DISMISSES film industry rumours that the IFB will cut back on funding for shorts. "If anything, that commitment will be stepped up. As one of my colleagues here said, 'The shorts are in need of a haircut'. That's true, but it doesn't mean they're going to have short hair, just that their hair might be a little tidier. We're producing some great shorts and some remarkable animation. What we might do is franchise out programmes for a year or two to a production company to run it under our general guidance. That's one of the things we're looking at."
