Hello World

Its quite important I feel that as my first blog appears to the world, I should honor the first transmission that was delivered using the Internet. Hence the title of my first foray into blogging is 'Hello World'.


Now I've lead off with an title that will have you thinking that I am now going to talk about the internet and how it was conceived etc and blah blah blah, but I am not. In a cruel twist of fate I am now going to talk about making movies, or rather my dream of doing so and why I think it'll eventually happen. Don't worry you are not going mad, this is just how my mind works. Flitting from one subject and then straight onto another, sometimes without any kind of bridge to lead you in gently.  


The idea of my blogging is a way of me setting my stall out, so to speak. As it says at the top of the page I am a prospective film director and I am deadly serious that this is the route I want my life to go in. For me, the idea of making a movie is such a pleasurable notion. I have always had an active imagination, a knack for delivering stories and a moral compass that lets me feel how the world should be, not as the world is.


This is the way that I write, if I get an idea I will write that idea down and plot an arc that will take that idea to a crescendo. My main inspiration for this is in Back to the Future, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale wrote a script and directed a movie that delivers family entertainment for an hour and a half. It has always been one of my favorite films and in the last few years my appreciation of it has grown tenfold, not simply because it entertains but the thinking that these two guys were the architects of a universe in which time travel was possible. Rob and Bob must have sat down and hashed out the little bits such as 'the Flux Capacitor', 'the photo of Marty and his siblings erasing', 'the disruption of the space time continuum' and these little bits must have given these guys massive headaches but for the love of what they were doing they pushed on through and delivered a film that has got my (at the very least) infinite appreciation of. 


So maybe I will make it and in 5 years time be directing films that will be adored the world over, maybe i'll become another statistic left by the wayside with a once good idea. All I can say for certain is that Back to the Future is the reason I want this so badly, and come what may I am in it for the long haul!


Right I am off to think some more about a great idea I had for some footage earlier on....


Bear Out.......
