Our Mission
To take a song that touched our hearts and make it into a movie
that touches the lives of many.
Our Process
With love and passion and a few lively discussions, we resolved
to write a book based on the song "Tracy Loves Ray" by Jay Hitt. After we market the book and
make it a best seller, we will then market the screenplay to make it into a
movie.
Our Progress
The book Tracy Loves Ray has been completed and is available for purchase. On this web site, follow the
progress of turning a song into a book, a screenplay, and finally into a movie. Our Project Journal will detail
the journey.
This project is a labor of love. Something clicked many years ago when Glenn heard the song "Tracy Loves Ray" for
the very first time. It didn’t
take long until he envisioned that a movie should be made based on the song and that
he needed to be a part of the process. A little while later Glenn decided to bring his daughter and son into the
project. The three decided that Theresa
would write the book and
Cary
would write the screenplay.
Cary
would lead meetings and be in charge of planning, managing and marketing. Of course, as the executive producer (AKA the money man) Glenn would have
final say on all decisions. Some roles have changed but the project still remains within the family.
The writing and publishing of the book Tracy Loves Ray is complete. Soon, we will begin writing the screenplay. We decided to write the screenplay immediately after completing the book to
minimize the differences between the book and the movie and to keep the project,
as a whole, true to the song. We are
finding that as we write the book we are automatically thinking about it playing out as a movie.
Be a part of the story and Help Us Make a Movie.
