Guillermo del Toro announced the development of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, a movie based on the successful trilogy of books written by Alvin Schwartz and illustrated by Stephen Gammell.

Deadline reported that John August wrote the script, and that del Toro could potentially direct. Plot details are obviously a secret.

Useful if this is how you think, though often I don’t see the outline until after the draft is written, because after awhile one just internalize this kind of stuff from all the media one ingests. Point is, use if helpful, ignore if not.

People say to write about what you know. I’m here to tell you, no one wants to read that, because you don’t know anything. So write about something you don’t know. And don’t be scared, ever.

For the last 13 seconds of my composition, Avid keeps giving me this error message. 

I've tried removing all effects from the sequence and adding them again (dissolves and the SpectraMatte for the main clip) and I've even re-rendered my After Effects graphics (which have no problems anywhere else in the sequence) and re-imported them.

I am working with AMA material but the my whole sequence has AMA material, so why should this last bit matter?
