Where Tyler Cowen thinks I'm worth investing in
Now who would've thunk eh? I of all people to receive a merit-based gift from Tyler Cowen?
Well, I'm also quite happy that I can make a decent pitch. So now, I have one really compelling reason to find time to make a film.
I have not read Prof Cowen's new book yet, but just to see how incentives work, I've put up a flyer at work asking for short screenplays and promising the chosen writer money and full screenwriting credit. 1. I hardly get time to write my own stuff. 2. I have to get used to directing other people's writing. And 3. I teach people that more than one creative mind can actually enhance a film, and would like to see if I can come up with a first-hand example. Let me see if I can also come up with some mechanism to chose a decent crew as well.
So thank you Prof Cowen, and thanks Shruti for telling me to give it a shot.
