I have immersed myself in many different art forms like poetry, creative writing, painting, sketching, and scriptwriting. Having many different means of making art makes it so much easier to truly express myself creatively. Out of all the art forms that I indulge in, I want to go into scriptwriting and writing for television. I enjoy writing many different genres, from mystery-thrillers to comedies to more dramatic and heart-felt scripts. It is something that has interested me since I was young, but only recently have I been motivated in pursuing it as a career.

 

Any idea that I have that could potentially be molded into a script for either a television series or movie, I write it down in a journal. I do this because there is no knowing if one of my ideas could be successful. The more ideas I have, the more I have to work with. As weird as this sounds, most of my ideas come from that weird state you are in right before you fall asleep, and I usually force myself to get up and write it down so that I will not forget it.

 

For this project dealing with the theme of connection, I wanted to write about the effects of losing that physical connection with someone. It is something that we are all experiencing right now, so I feel as though it can easily be written into a script. However, I intend on writing the script and actually making a short film out of it. I have previously taken a media development and production course and am more than comfortable with filming and editing my work myself, as well as writing the screenplay.
