A Different Perspective

One of the components of Soularize this year in Venice Beach will be going out into the community and learning by doing… something. We’re looking for a wide variety of activities people can particpate in.

Because I’m an actor and a filmmaker, Spencer mentioned to me maybe getting people together to actually make a short film at Soularize this year. What do you think?

My concerns are, not in order of importance:

• The quality of the work by producing a film in such a short amount of time, with I presume mostly amateur filmmakers
• Coming up with a good enough story to tell… should it be written beforehand, or should writing the script be part of the experience?
• The possibility of getting caught without permits, as we don’t have the money to do the shoot right. I suppose we could shoot it all indoors, where permits aren’t actually necessary, and lastly,
• Would it be beneficial for someone to spend their time doing this project? I’d hope so, but I’m not sure

Any way, I’d love input from anyone, especially if you are thinking of going to Soularize this year (March 9-11 in Venice Beach, CA)
