This year marks MadLab's ninth year of Volatility and first in its new
space at 227 N. 3rd St. In the past we have raised money to pay for our heating & cooling, electrical system, new ceilings and several other renovations that made our former facility such a success and allowed us to purchase our new space. Now, we need help with the finishing touches on the renovations of our new place. So please come support the only completely original, alternative arts space in Columbus and see a slew of great bands and entertainers in the process.

Did we mention that Volatility will be held JULY 17th at MadLab, 227 N. 3rd St., Columbus, OH 43215?
Here is the rundown again:

Volatility has been instrumental in MadLab's ongoing survival and
space improvements. To date, we have raised over $20,000 from this
fundraiser and have made improvements that include, but are not
limited to our heating and cooling system, electrical upgrades,
ceiling replacement, a new projector and much more. Volatility
continues to be our largest single event of our year and we thank all
those that volunteer and attend each and every year, especially all of
our wonderful bands and performers.

I'd like to thank....

playwright Scott Tobin and screenwriter Sheldon Gleisser for letting us hear their work. I'd also like to thank Amy Talbott, Louie Cowan, Scott Summit, John Calig, Yury Khidekel, Rick Napoli, Mary Jo Apisa, Ellie Anderson, and Stephan Woosly. Finally, the June 19 meeting could not have happened without the help of Louie Cowan (casting cherub), Megan Burkeholder (video cherub) , and Dan O'Reilly (stage direction cherub). Don't miss our next meeting on Saturday, July 31, 2010. Until next time, keep writing.

For those hoping to break into “the industry” by writing a spec screenplay, this program will be broken into two halves: The first 75 minutes will discuss standard and alternative screenplay structure and various approaches to writing dialogue. The second 75 minutes will explain how to safeguard your work, how to find agents/managers, and how to get your script read (and noticed) by industry professionals.

Eric Williams sold his first script (Columbo and the Curse of Sorcery Circus) to Peter Falk at Universal Studios in 1997. Since then, Williams has created the TV series Don’t Try This at Home for American Movie Classics, received “Best New Work” honors from the Writers Guild of America for his script Crystal Messiah and has had his work selected to participate in the prestigious Film Independent Producers Lab in Los Angeles. In addition to the fourteen original feature film scripts and adaptations that he has written, Williams is currently co-writing the script Legendary with director Alfredo DeVilla. Williams received his MFA from Columbia University and currently teaches at the Scripps College of Communication at Ohio University.
