I’m just going to come right out and say it: This script it corny. It’s got that inspirational feel, but you know at all times where it’s headed. But sometimes we need that – sometimes we need that reassurance that everything’s going to be all right. Sometimes fate needs to say, “It’ll all work out” instead of “It’ll all end tragically”. This is my take on that philosophy.
Logline: Scott designs playgrounds – but not just any playgrounds. The playgrounds that Scott designs are expansive, educational, with an element of grandeur and naturalism. Unfortunately, though, the funds aren’t coming in, like he’d hoped. The answer to his problems lie in his one dedicated fan, a parent by the name of Stu – who will show Scott that, more than anything, its confidence in oneself that draws the crowd.
Script: The Chief Architect

Cameron Reilly is a southern California native, who received his Associate's Degree from Moorpark College in the field of Philosophy, during which he learned the art of debate and persuasion.
Originally interested in utilizing his abilities to persuade for marketing purposes, Cameron decided to follow his lifelong passion of storytelling and creative writing. The unique twist that Cameron offers for his articles on narrative structure, or the stories he constructs, or the screenplays he architects is a concentrated focus on research in the fields of psychology, philosophy and literary theory. This leads to innovative stories led by characters with mythical qualities. And the plots in which they interact could just as easily have played out inside the reader's head, as if the characters were representative of Freudian psychic elements, Jungian archetypes, or Blakean gods.
For those authors who would like to learn more about the creative process of writing, Cameron researches the philosophical, psychological, and theoretical elements of narrative design. Find him on Twitter or Instagram at @ercwriting, or follow this blog for weekly articles, stories, and scripts.
