Many of you may not know that I am aspiring to be in the film industry. In preparation to getting ready for my desired career, I’m writing stories and acting in plays. Over the years, I have getting into doing more than just acting. I have taken up writing as my second favorite hobby. So far, I’ve written a few of my own screenplays and currently writing a one-act play. My friends and I are currently working on filming one of my self-written screenplays, "Sleepover at Shelly's." I've been asked how I create my stories.
Nowadays, I get inspiration from random events I attend, experiences I go through or even something that already exists. For example, I got the inspiration for "Sleepover at Shelly's" is slightly from the game Five Nights at Freddy's. It kind of came to life from there. I just built upon it and overtime it became how it is today. Also, I had help with my friends that are share the same passion as I do about films.
Same as every script, it's gone through its fair share of rewrites and difficulties. There have been many different ways the film could've progressed but, in my opinion it hadn't worked with the payout I wanted for the short film, and I was just too lazy to come up with a whole new script. The characters I've written for specific friends of mine, something I plan on only doing once. But it's fun colliding the personalities of characters I've created. I can already see I'm going to have a lot of fun writing more stories and the production of this short film is a great experience in getting myself exposed into how making films. The release of "Sleepover at Shelly's" is to be announced and stay tuned for more articles.
