  • Seriously Lawrence? Have you been watching films lately? Check out Brothers Bloom, Slumdog Millionaire, and [500] Days of Summer. Your point is thus refuted. FIlm is art. Each shot conveys a message. Each shot should carry the story forward. each shot should be motivated. Creativity and style is part of the art. Think through the history of painting. Painting can be incredibly technical, with incredible results: Mona Lisa, anything Michelangelo, or the Dutch Masters painted. Technicality is ok.

  • I get goosebumps watching this. What an amazing environment to be in. Amongst creative filmmakers all there to refine their craft, talk, learn and create stories. I crave this kinda stuff! I'd love to do this some day *sigh*

  • I don't care if I sound fickle or stupid or naive, I've never made a short or anything before, I'm still learning how to understand what makes a great film and what makes for great storytelling, but I want to be a filmmaker too. At times, I get lost as to where to start exactly and get scared if I'm just naive but heck, I might as well give my life away to something I could possibly love more than anything and be great at. Let's keep on keepin' on guys! :)
