A blogging friend of mine had the privilege to interview Todd Garner in association with the new “tornado”movie Black Sky that’s being filmed in Michigan. In exciting developments via Twitter a couple of days ago, Mr. Garner made arrangements with Frenz for an interview. This is all timely as I have an interview with another producer involved with another movie in the works. I did the interview a couple of weeks ago and am writing the piece in between new babies and picking squash. My, my what a glamorous life I do lead!
What a pleasure to speak with Todd Garner, Producer on Black Sky, about his new movie and about Richard Armitage, whom he says is “thoughtful and smart.” This should come as little surprise to fans since Richard has received praise from quite a few professionals during his career. Mostly due to his zeal to ensure the story is paramount and his character a perfect complement. His habit of writing character biographies has become almost legendary among fans and has prompted some to ask if he is a writer in the making. Garner thinks he is already there, “He’s an amazing actor but also a terrific writer even though he wouldn’t say that. He has come up with great moments not only for himself and others but for the movie. In fact we just finished shooting a moment he came up with that might be in the trailer.”

What a feather in RAFrenzy’s cap to be granted this interview! Congratulations! Everything I read about Richard just increases my respect for him as the consummate professional he is. I enjoyed learning how he contributes to the story by his development of a character biography, something I’ve discovered in writing. The more layered the background, the more avenues of exploration open up before you, creating a deeper, more vital character and story.
Queenie, I can’t wait to read your interview also! My! How you do keep secrets!

She did good didn’t she? And actually, she didn’t “ask” for the interview! Mr. Garner is just a nice guy…as is Mr. Armitage, I’m sure.
Let me just say that my interview won’t be on quite the same level as this one but it IS unique. For a lot of reasons!!! 🙂
