But what I really want to do is direct...
My eldest son's current school project is Stop Motion Animation.
I've been having a BLAST building the clay characters, messing around with Adobe Premier and helping him do this 30 second film. What a riot.
It's one thing to write a film or a sketch, but it's MINDBLOWING to see it come to life. I can only imagine how Richard Lewis is going to feel when his book hits the big screen.
And the really neat thing?
You realise how critical the writing is.
No writer.
No magic.
We're potential gods, all of us.
We can creat worlds.
Dictate who lives, who dies and who gets the happy ending.
How cool is that?

I totally want to see the film when it is done... I LOVE that stuff! :-)
tremble before me I say.
tremble.
agree with bethany - any chance you can post the film? We can host it at the Bunion site if you like.
I don't see writing as being creative. Oh, I KNOW it is, but in MY world, I'm just opening a door into another reality. The reality of these characters and their world. I'm only here to put down their words and actions so those of us here who can't see them there will know what they're up to.
I just consider myself extremely lucky that I CAN see into their lives.
And FILM/VIDEO!! There's an opening into yet another world, where we can actually SEE what they look like! Fantastic!
How fun. Yes, yes, post it up on the Bunion site!!!
Writers are like gods. We create characters and then they're at our mercy to fuck with as we like...
Or as you call it, create magic.
Yea! I'd like to see it too!
