The Reason Of No Activity (why wasn't so long)
No, the project isn't closed or stopped. I was just doing a bunch of boring stuff that non of blender artist may care of, like finding an actor for the child role. Then I was reading books about Producing movies and managing the people that they couldn't go until the project is done. And of course because of the luck of knowledge and experience I had many problems with it.
I made adds in the town to find an actor, little boy from 7 to 9 years old and hopefully one single mom actually called me. I was ridiculously happy about it. A first week we was planning about the parts of the contract and suddenly I discovered that the boy was Epileptic. Other few months I was almost fighting to get this boy for the production when his was finding all the reasons do not to get him. As a stupid, obsessive person I started to read books about psychology and neurology to get the boy to the project, but during this learning I discovered that my script for the movie wasn't so psychologically right. Oh my god, I needed to fix some stuff in the script and storyboard. The child is still not on the project and the project became a development hell.
Learning Marketing (what did I've learned all this time)
When I learned so much about neurology I had an idea to make another video "Love Is Bullshit Word" that explains my new views at the culture and society. And how it's must be changed.
You can watch it here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnUGQ4KNVGk
But the video wasn't successful so I started to search a new information about Marketing and Promotion, so the projects I do, will bring audience. I discovered few rules (working elements in most cases) that brings those audience.
1. Make the good presentation. (even your project is a bullshit, presentation is everything)
2. Make the audience understand that they are need it.
3. Make them feel that it's possible. (if you make art or tutorial, explain that it's easy even if it's not)
4. Use sympathy effect. (use children or other cute stuff for to make people feel the art in the heart)
The Main Plan (how did wrong hate started)
When I was 14 years old I drew a picture of two ding kids. Boy and Girl with a wall between them. Boy was in the water and the girl in the fire. I called it Sinking In The Fire.
Little while after I came out with an idea of making a movie of this. Very fast I sketched the plot about how does she meeting him, who is he. And pretty much in the same time I wrote a song for the movie that shortly explain the plot. "Call Night Moon"
I though of idea to put some not natural stuff like aliens and UFOs to have something to work in blender. I realized that one of the kids can be an alien that transforming into human look when he want.
There was so many things I wanted to do in this movie. To make it a masterpiece like ET or Close Encounters Of Third Kind. So I even naively though to get Steven Spielberg him self to direct the movie. But shortly enough I realized that it was mostly impossible. I need to produce and direct this movie my self. I started to make the project when I've got 15 and Tears Of Steel was close to it relies. I heard about all those new features of Blender. Camera Tracking, Cycles render. I was exited to try this.
One day I realized that I suck. I'm not good at directing, photography. And I'm the worst producer ever. So I decided to learn it out. That year I didn't had a personal computer to work on him. Like didn't even had a smallest production value. So I was sitting at YouTube all day and all night, watching making ofs, tutorials of movie directing, blender tutorials. Was learning composition, light, color theories. And other technical stuff.
In the 16's birth day mom bought me a new Lap Top, so I started the production. But first thing I was needed to check all the new information on smaller projects.
I decided to break apart the production in 2 peaces. 1 test movies 2 the Sinking In The Fire it self.
First movie in this series was supposed to be a minute green screen + animation test called "Wrong Hate". But I've got a little too much and wrote 32 minutes of stuff. It became a serious business. While the production I was learning Music in parallel in order to create soundtrack to the movie. And I recorded the song called "Call Night Moon" from the Sinking In The Fire movie.
Currently I'm working on finding another kid for the project and fixing the stuff I've done wrong. Also making a music video for the song in order to promote the movie. (Used to find a little girl which for some reason was much easier) And typing this blog stuff to calm you down, because movie is gonna get done. When exactly I don't know of, but it will get done.
