Short film and half face.

Well alot is going to be happening for me lately. I'll start off by saying i'm going to be MAKING A SHORT FILM! I'm soo excited! i have so many ideas.. so little time.. Im aiming to get it done by February! Well ...hopefully February. All i know is my film, will be done with human stop motion and a teenaged boy. I think this would be sooo much fun! I just need to find some boys.. ..boy infact to be my experiment :) muahaha. At the moment im researching.. what kind of style i want and hopefully start writing up my story boards. I'm thinking of doing my short film with no dialogue, maybe just atmos sound and music. And wouldn't it be interesting to have my angle through-out the film focused on the body and not the face? Something abstract. Something different. Something new. I've noticed in some of my personal photos i take, i take them of only half my face. Maybe its just bad aiming? But fact is, i like how its like that. I like how you cant reveal most of the face. It makes people curious and wonder why the hell that did that. Maybe with my short film i can focus it on the body and in the end it could making the angle nessessary. Hmmmm.. Just browsing through some photographs i admire on various Flickrs i found some photos which relate to exactly what i want shots to look like.


But yeah i think you get the point! OMG I'M SO EXCITED!

By the way, I watched this video today when i looked up "half face" on youtube.
Its just something you have to check out.

Daisy in The Woods

When I was a young, I used to go with my friends deep in the woods till it was time for supper. We would play hide-and-seek and tip and sometimes climb the trees. I knew most my way around the woods but i would leave white pebbles on the ground just incase.
“Oh Daisy. Daisy! Daisy where are you? You'll have to come out one day.”
I ran fast as fast as i could, just incase they found me. Their voices faded away slowly, just like the sun and all i could hear was the rustle of the leaves under my feet. I found a spot by a big oak tree where i stopped to rest. I don’t know if I was awake or asleep, I thought I heard the faint sound of a flute.
“What’s your name?”
“Daisy. I’ve lost my way. Can you help me, please?”
“Daisy… you mean… daisy like the white flower? The frail daisy?”
“Sir, please, show me the way home!”
He took me by the hand and led me out of the woods.
“Thank you. Who are you? You’re so beautiful! Do you live in the woods?”
He was very fashionable, dressed from head to toes in green and with gorgeous kaki boots. He put his finger on my lips and said: “Sshh!” And I stood there, watching him go back, listening to the music of his flute.
Nobody has ever said my name like he did.

Taking up photography

I decided to take up photography. Lately i've been looking through pictures and alot of peoples works and ive been soo inspired to take some photos myself. So i bought a camera made in the 50's.. i believe..? It's such a heavy camera.. and so hard to get a hold of. Here are some flickrs that i constantly look at...

I noticed i like photos of that show truth, honesty, lies and nature. Things like nudity, girls with no make up, kids smoking and pollution. I think its because i like the photos people never seem to capture enough of.. everyone seems to focus on fake lies rather than truth. All the photos ill take wont be edited. They will be as they are and have a story behind them all. So heres my first take..
I'll start by saying this is Joshua.
