The librarian would still be a 3D puppet but the stories would be in this 2D style so as not to confuse the reality with the story.  |

I bought these old photographs at an antiques market in the hope of inspiration. There is a feeling of nostalgia linked to old photographs and I thought I could use these to fuel the librarians grief. Perhaps the couple is a picture of him and his wife whom he grieves for, maybe his child, or his father? I quite like the idea of the loss of a father...perhaps he was the librarian senior which would cause the librarians grief and hatred towards books as they remind him of his Dad.
My initial thoughts for this project are turned towards how I can fit my idea which in its current state is rather large (in a sense of ideas bubbling round in my head) into a short film of no more than three minutes.
I have toyed with the idea of making a trailer which would be promoting a feature film (one I would obviously never have the time and funds to make for myself) that meant I could make some exciting scenes based towards a story idea. However I have been given feedback to suggest this would be a very bad idea, it would be better to try and complete a full narrative in short form as making a trailer for a film that does not exist could mean creating material that isn't entirely truthfuil or fair to me as the narrator. I have therefore decided I will be making a short film, huzzah! The character is a Librarian.
He hates books and stories...reason? Unknown to me as of yet. Let the work commence... | Creative Writing and Story Development
This is where I will be updating my progress with the development of the story. ArchivesMarch 2013 CategoriesAll |
