Over the course of this project I have realized I may need to acquire additional funding and support. To this end I have acquired a £500 grant from The Mighty Creatives fund. This fund includes: the £500 bursary to spend on items like cameras, microphones, editing software etc. as well as monthly 1 on 1 sessions with a Creative Coach who will guide me and give advice on my project as well as webinars and project management guidance sessions about my project. The creative coach is an expert in the field of film and cinematography and so has been able to use his expertise to scrutinize my work and help to improve it with his expertise Overall this fund will be very useful as not only will it be able to bankroll my production but also be able to offer opinions and advice on how it is progressing and what I can do to better it

While searching for scripts to study, I have found the following website. It seems to be a blog run by Ashley Scott Meyers: a professional screenwriter in order to help aspiring writers more easily enter the industry. The set seems to be trustworthy and helpful: it is after all made by a man who has successfully made it into the industry so will probably be able to help me somewhat. I will start paying attention to this site as I continue with my writing
