Here, Take This, I Love You: Chapter 3

A very special edition of our giveaway series.

This week I wrote about the transformative experience of directing my first feature film, Paint It Black, back in 2014, and how the love and support of women—both in the entertainment industry and outside of it—helped me realize a creative dream that changed my life.

Our HTTILY Chapter 3 giveaway is a creativity bundle to help you harness your artistic vision, whether that’s directing your own film, writing a book, adapting a screenplay, or anything in between. The bundle comes with: 

• A journal with prompts handwritten by me to get your creative fire kindled

• My favorite pens and pencils for writing and taking notes, straight from my writing desk! (I have plenty of them, don’t worry.)

• A hardcopy of the Paint It Black script

• A Paint It Black flask that I gave the cast and crew as a wrap gift when we finished shooting

• Plus a few very special extra surprises

If you’re an artist who could use a bundle of creative inspiration (and also a flask, ‘cause why not?) then let us know by commenting on this post by this Friday, March 10, 2023 at 5pm ET to be entered to win. This chapter’s HTTILY winner will be randomly selected from the comments section. Full giveaway rules and eligibility can be found below (along with more never-before-seen photos from set).

And to send you off into the weekend inspired, here are a few more photos from behind the scenes of Paint It Black. As always, thanks for being here with us.
