Well, record it. And then write down what you recorded. Problem solved.

I already wanted to say: instead of whitewalkers in an ice world: sandworms on a desert planet :lol::lol:

You have no writer's block. You afraid to try and fail.

Shooting a stop motion tonight. Will be fun and cool to try some stuff :)

Name 1 first short ever from a total beginner that was truly brilliant. Trust me: you have ambitions plans. Without having experience making a simpler drama, you will be overwhelmed by both the basic stuff and the complicated technical stuff needed for fantasy at the same time. Knowing the...

Keeping viewers interested is indeed key. You want them to care about characters and/or you want them to want to know the solution. You can play with tension which is often a 'inbalance in knowledge': - the viewer knows something the character doesn't know (like a lurking monster) - the...

I think you are mixing up 'clear story structure' and 'predictable'. And that is probably your whole obstacle with writing: you are unable to write when you can't predict where your story is going, but without writing it, you will never know. Trapped in your own paradox of wanting to know the...

It has been a while ago that we made this during 48 Hour Film Project in Rotterdam, but is about time for a online release. Genre: Sports/romance. Shot om FS5 with Xeen primes (exept for the gimbal shots). Too many locations and too little time, lol. No nominations, but still a nice...

Partnering up is always good. And the short - feature route has been done often before. But: when one has never written a realised short the odds are against one when it comes to creating that winning short. So partner up and make something less complicated first so it gets easier to do the...

There is no shortcut. Nobody will give you millions based on 1 short, no matter how good it is. Dream big and set baby steps towards the goal. Or dream big and keep on dreaming.

Then write short and simple things first that can be made without the Weta Workshop. Nobody (= no pun, but he is a dreamer as well) has ever made a first short without any experience and saw that turn into a feature.

How many short films did you already make?

Mandy 8,5 Beautifully shot grotesque madness

That editing workshop: they planned it in the wrong weekend (for me, lol). Good luck with the film fund! What are you planning to make?

Finished 4 videos thusfar this week. Not getting rich though: 2 of them for charity and 1 I sponsored. Gonna do a small (volunteering) stopmotion project with a friend. Will be interesting to see if we can pull it off. Not much experience with this: we'll be using action figures. We just need...

I guess it is hard to let any gay themed movie play in Iran and make it there. The official 'policy' is that there are no gays in Iran. On the other hand: a Kenian movie about lesbians has been made, was boycotted by the government (it has been screened around the world already), but a judge...

Classical poems use rythm over rhyme. As for translations of ancient literature: the most modern one is often the easiest to read. English writings from 1902 are very different from 2018. Language evolves. Plus there is a difference between a translation trying to keep the poetic form and a more...

Are you sure you are not mixing up the sub genre gore with the main genre horror? Horror does not need to be bloody with flying intestines. On the other hand: if you manage to write a script that makes you barf, you may have a killer script :P

No great piece of art in the world is a perfect first draft. Don't let perfectionism cloak your procrastination. You are afraid of failing and fear kills creativity. As soon as you realise that the only failure is to not write, you'll be fearless enough to start writing. And then rewrite and...

Still I made it. And they published the video today: https://www.facebook.com/BaroegOpenAir/videos/236283243904615/ :)
