Hey Scott.
Yes, I have some of my college films up, but I’m reluctant to post them up on here.
I write a lot a lot about things that happen to me that I want to remember. Mostly they become part of short stories or screenplays. I’ve dabbled in the screenplay format, but I can’t get past 50 pages, so they’re mostly short films, ideas for tv. I like to write to music videos too.
The most recent film that reconfirmed my love for film…Scorsese’s Hugo. I went in not knowing anything about the film or book (only saw the trailer) and was pleasantly surprised. It had sold me on the use of 3D (which I wasn’t a fan of until Hugo) and I just loved seeing Méliès films being re-awakened on the big screen (along with Buster Keaton’s, Weine’s…). And I think of the kids watching this and being fed this film history (eat it, kids!) and maybe seeing for the first time the first films ever made. I wasn’t exposed to that as a kid, though I wish I was.
Any film that reminds me how magical filmmaking is definitely reconfirms my love for film, and Hugo was one of those films last year. Thanks for the questions!
