150 Scripts: A Journey into the Heart of Filmmaking
Dr. AY Heath Dec 23, 2024
Hello. My name is Dr. AY Heath; you can call me Angel. I'm here to chronicle a big goal for myself. And trust me, it is a very big goal. So what is this big goal. I’m going to read and break down 150 film scripts. That does sound like a lot, but it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while and, after stepping away from my corporate job, I dove into film school and have been diving deep into the process of storytelling. But I want to do more than just learn technical skills; I want to understand what works and doesn't and see where we're in this big filmmaking industry.

Key-Kee Catdine
"Key-Kee!" Nadine echoed, her tiny hands gripping the floor as she crawled forward, her voice bubbling with excitement. "No, it is Kit-Ty," Harold corrected, shaking his head. "She says it wrong. She is still a baby," Elise said gently. "Meow, meow… meowww," Nadine mimicked the family cat, her tiny frame wiggling like a kitten in play. Eli dropped to his hands and knees beside her. "Meowww!" he exaggerated, scrunching his nose and wiggling his fingers like whiskers. "Ugh, this is ridiculous," Harold groaned. As Nadine moved, the soft fur of her costume brushed against her arms, keeping her warm against the cool fall air. She did not know it yet, but this was something she would carry forever. Her orange-striped costume tail flicked behind her. It was her first Halloween, the night she would start transforming into something more. Later, as shadows stretched across the walls, she whispered her first sign of something greater. "Here, Key-Kee."

Born Between Two Days
"The melody of ‘Jesus Loves the Little Children’ drifted through the quiet church, each note steady beneath Yara’s fingertips. No one noticed how her back stiffened, how her breath caught just slightly before she pressed forward, playing through the sharp waves of pain. The music continued, but time itself seemed to slow. It wasn’t time. Not yet."

“Top 5 Features to Look for in Springtown sheds”
Springtown's got that perfect mix of small-town feel with enough space to actually build something worthwhile. We've worked with a lot of homeowners out here who need solid storage without sacrificing their backyard views. Properties tend to run bigger than in town, which gives us room to construct sheds that really work.

"Finally made it to Bilbao! A personal travel story and guide to the best of this Basque city. Discover Casco Viejo, pintxos, the Guggenheim, and hidden gems in the heart of northern Spain."

1LILSUNNY: “Pain Is Proof I’m Still Here” (Interview)
“The 757 Has a New Sun Rising” traces the rise of Virginia artist Sunny, a young voice redefining his region’s sound. From early inspirations like Black Kray, Lil Tracy, Cayo Banks, and YvngxChris—whom he first met at a local football game in 2019—to crossing paths with Michael Vick in 2025, Sunny’s journey shows how deeply he’s been connected to Virginia’s culture and legacy. With music that blends emotion, melody, and quiet confidence, he embodies the next chapter of the 757’s influence—proof that the state’s sun is still rising.
