TREKCORE: Speaking of that history, we know that you guys have been working on different projects for several years now – but all the credits that the general public gets to see is whatever shows up on IMDB… which, to be honest, is a pretty sparse list at the moment. After finishing one of the first things we wrote, we were like, “Oh, wow – we like this.” That led to more things through college, and the rest is history. And you’re learning to do this at a young enough age that you’re developing a voice together, and stumbling and seeing what works or doesn’t work together… it was great, and very much a once-in-a-lifetime kind of thing. You don’t even really know it, but figuring out how the two of you come together with all of the various creative instincts, and figuring out how you’re going to tackle these problems is something pretty cool.
Xiii the conspiracy part 3 full movie how to#
There were these things that I’d been working through in my own work that I hadn’t quite known how to tackle, but Patrick came on and brought all of these other cool things to it.īeing able to find that kind of thing was a very special and unique kind of thing, and when you meet your writing partner that young, it’s sort of like falling in love with your high school sweetheart, somehow. It was the kind of thing where it was just instantly fun and easy and rewarding to do together. We quickly found that it was sort of kismet, and that we both had talents that kind of… what’s the right word for it, J.D.? So we directed this play together, and it was a lot of fun, so we decided that for the next year’s festival, we’d write one together from the ground up. was always writing short stories and novels and with a very Twilight Zone sort of sci-fi style. I was very much a film buff, into Scorsese and other cool, edgy filmmakers, and was sort of making my own little backyard silly movies J.D. had written a play, and he invited me to help direct it for the festival at our school.Īt the time, you know, we had both been independently pursuing creative work.
I guess around our junior year in high school, J.D. We were on the debate team together, and sort of knew each other peripherally, and through other friends.
We met in junior high we went to the same junior high and high school. and I have been writing together for about seventeen years. How did you end up paired together as a writing team? TREKCORE: First of all, tell us a little about your backgrounds.
The TrekCore team is proud to release our EXCLUSIVE, in-depth interview with McKay and Payne, the first conversation published ANYWHERE with the scribes who have been working tirelessly to shape the next adventures of Captain Kirk and the crew of the USS Enterprise. Payne were first named as co-writers on 2016’s Star Trek sequel – joining returning writer (and now director) Roberto Orci – the franchise fanbase has been buzzing with questions about these newcomers: Who are they? What other work have they produced? Just what do they know about Star Trek, anyhow?Īside from a few brief conversations and video clips released back in March, we haven’t heard much from this new writing team… and we thought we’d better change that!
