There will be a new system for pages. At the start of the meeting, I will send a link to the folder for you all to read on your phone. This might be easier than the tablet method. I will still have the tablets, however.
If you print your pages, make sure to print a copy for each role plus the narrator and yourself. If you’d like, you can e-mail your pages in PDF form to joelsscreenplays@icloud.com. Joel will have six tablets (iPads and others) to be used instead of reading from paper copies.
However, this month, Joel will leave early, so if you want them on the tablets, please send them by Friday evening. Joel will reply with a Received message–if you don’t get one, please check the address and resend.
