Press
Producer Takes Action
and Creates the First Script
Referral Service for Writers
Hollywood, CA, February 12, 2010 – Designated as the Creative Idea Planner, one producer’s hands-on experience within
the television industry is currently supporting new and aspiring scriptwriters
with a referral service, proclaimed as the Script
Planner, that helps to nurture creative ideas by staking a reputation on
recommending scripts with original concepts and commercial potential to buyers
who are eager to discover the next hit film, television show, or undiscovered
writing talent.
Just as successful wedding planners tend to have a large number of
contacts and services available to take the burden off
the people planning a wedding, the script planner makes script recommendations
to production companies, networks, agencies, and studios that can help a script
evolve into a film or television show. Through industry relationship
connections, Script Planner is able
to provide a sense of appropriateness for the style of project with a strong
understanding of what dictates the next "must have" script
to executives and referrals for writers eager to pitch their concepts to
industry leaders who otherwise would never give their script a chance.
Another first in this breakthrough service is a thank-you to writers submitting a pitch in the form of
free writing tools, an original concept report card and referral details of
interested industry executives. Producer and creator, Regina Romain, comments
by saying, "I know from personal experience that all the time you put into
creating a work of art can be excruciating when it is not acknowledged and the
dreadful anxiety of not knowing if someone is going to steal your idea." For
the security of writers, Script Planner
only makes script recommendations to those with authorization that can help a
script evolve into a film or television show.
The referral service is currently used by leading literary
agencies, production companies, and networks.
Upsets were the rule of the night at the 35 annual Daytime Emmys on Friday
evening, held at Los Angeles’ Hollywood and Highland Entertainment
Complex, with Twentieth Television’s Cristina’s Court winning
the first-ever award for Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Show.
Meanwhile, ABC led all networks with 14 total
awards.
Cristina’s Court, a show
that Twentieth developed for U.S. television off of Spanish-language
Telemundo, took the prize over the much–higher-rated and longer-running Judge Judy, which has led the court pack for since
the show’s premiere in 1996.
Ellen DeGeneres managed to four-repeat as
Outstanding Talk Show Host, a prize she has won four out of five times
since her show premiered in 2003. While DeGeneres was named best host,
CBS’ Rachael Ray took home the prize for
Outstanding Talk Show, an award Warner Bros.’ The
Ellen DeGeneres Show Tyra Banks beat out CBS’
much–higher-rated Dr. Phil had won for the previous four years in a row.
And Warner Bros.’ as top
informational talk show, another new category for the Daytime Emmys.
CBS’ The Oprah Winfrey Show
was not in the mix. Winfrey has taken herself and her show out of
contention in 1999 after sweeping the awards for several years running.
The upsets may have been the result of changes made
in the voting system this year. Previously, the entire membership of
the National Association of Television Arts and Sciences selected
nominees off an overall list, with a blue-ribbon panel deciding the
winner out of the group of category nominees. This year, shows sent in
episodes and a panel of about 20 member-voters selected the nominees and
the winners after viewing those episodes.
HOUSTON, TX, JUNE 15, 2009 – CIP, a talent acronym, is the creative
idea planning of Regina Romain, reality TV producer and writer,
who hasn’t made a big deal about her accomplishments, until now.
The
acclaimed title has gained respected confirmation by top executives in Hollywood and abroad recognizing Regina as the creative
idea planner of remarkable out-of-the-box concepts that gain
audience attention. A talented trait preserved,
but never released to peers and media consumers.
CIP’s past creative silence was about not making any
unnecessary noise or the need to justify talent. The creative idea planner
believes the art of producing and writing is know-how, confidence and
preparation, not inexperienced approval. An important effort CIP believes takes time to master.
With a wide range of accomplishments
and story ideas, CIP is currently developing reality
programs and scripted projects.
The most talked about cable program
in Houston is
now available on DVD
HOUSTON, TX, OCTOBER 11, 2008 – A
hit with television audiences, The Thomas
Webb Variety Hour Minus 30 still proves to get all the laughs. You’ve never
seen a talk show quite like this one. It comes equipped with big laughs and a
powerful driving force of information now available on DVD.
Executive Producer and Creator, Regina Romain, said in
today's interview “The Thomas Webb
Variety HourMinus 30 was a
completely different breed of talk show. You didn't see shows like Diet Secrets
and Makeovers or My Sister Slept With My Husband. This was also not a news or
political debate forum. What we had was a uniquely style show that focused on
entertainment through education with some big laughs here and there. What's
awesome, the topics are still relevant today. The show was uniquely before its
time.”
Host and Co-Creator, Thomas Webb, also commented by saying,
“I have been at various meetings with city officials such as the City Attorney
or HISD Administrator who would take time out to acknowledge being a regular
viewer of the show. However, all of these incidents pale in comparison to the
burial service I attended for a friend with whom I used to work years ago. The
attention at the wake was shifted from the deceased to me as old friends who
were fans, as well as strangers who had become fans, actually formed a line to
either get my autograph or give supportive comments about the TV show. This
humbled me beyond words, and now even when I'm just out grocery shopping I
realize that although I am mingling with common folk just like myself, the
people view me as a star in their mist as a result of the Thomas Webb Variety Hour Minus 30.”
