One of the things that truly delights and amuses me is creating fantastical stories in my head. Stories with strange and interesting characters, with wondrous and impossible locations and deep and meaningful story lines. These characters and their fictional lives constantly fill my head, and I attempt to jot them down in a word document or a script whenever possible. It is these stories that make me want to make films.
However, much of these stories have never come to anything more than ideas in my head and abandoned, uncompleted scripts. This is largely because I will move onto another story or change the story and start it over again. But, the main reason is because the films in my head would cost a lot of money, and I mean huge budgets, and the sad truth of the matter is, that this is money I simply do not have.
So, after two years of honing and improving my film making skills, I have decided to do something about this problem. If I wish to make these films then I will need to find a practical and realistic way to make them. This is what my research project is about, finding a practical and realistic way to realize my fantastical stories and ideas.
I am much looking forward to this project and am eager to witness it's, hopefully pleasing, results.
