I'm going to make a movie!
 
I wanted to make a movie for a very long time.. and now the time has finally been there that I thought of a great storyline worth turning into one! The only question is when I have enough time to work it out. ^_^

I can't tell you much about it but it's not really magic-related, although it comes close in a way. :angel:

Ohhhh that would be awesome to see. Are you going to be acting too or just directing?

TheMisdirectingHand 04-19-2011 12:46 AM

I still think the idea with the train was okay.

Can't wait for Mark's movie/video to come out, wonder what topic it is...

Kieran Oloughlin 04-19-2011 08:36 AM

Will it be a short movie uploaded to youtube or a long movie that you see somwhere else? Will it have any magic in it also is this what you have been studying at uni?

Mark 04-19-2011 09:16 AM

It will be a long movie uploaded to YouTube. There will be the slightest bit of magic in it, but it's not the focus at all as said in the main post. I may be acting a little but probably I'll just be directing. ;)

And no, I haven't been studying this at the university. I did however follow a film making course some years ago but it's not that I learnt a lot at it. :(

TheMisdirectingHand 04-20-2011 02:52 AM

So will we see Mark dodging bullets? :)

la0o9 04-20-2011 05:09 AM

Kieran Oloughlin 04-20-2011 07:38 AM

I want to see mark as a vampire macigian how goes around and drinks the blood of migians how have done magic wrong such as revelers.

Mark 04-20-2011 12:36 PM

I have actually been asked by friends what a movie with me would be like, but I just can't think of a decent script for that so I rather make a movie with a character I feel somewhat related to. You could actually see the main character as me, yet he's an expert in another field, going another road. ;)

TheMisdirectingHand 04-20-2011 04:13 PM

Strangely... the only name that comes to mind right now would be... "Morpheus"...

Mark 04-21-2011 12:27 PM

Actually, I just had a great idea for a magic/DarkSleightZ-related movie, although it may be a bit too much of a cliché. Fact is that it won't ever be as good as my all-time favorite, 'The Prestige'. But yeah, maybe I should make two movies. :p

TheMisdirectingHand 04-21-2011 03:45 PM

How small is your budget?

la0o9 04-21-2011 05:42 PM

hmmm, "The Prestige", still love it, takes deception to a whole new level( the fact that they manage to hide the secret while they grow up is kinda scary)

s13zeTheDay 04-25-2011 04:51 AM

the prestige was really good but reeeeeeeeeeally weird.

Why so? Do you mean because of the beginning and the ending? If so essentially it was a cool movie twist, man :D

Fin 07-23-2011 05:47 AM

I found that the "twist" didn't quite fit with the rest of the movie, it was like I thought we were in "basic realistic fiction" land for most of the film and I was quite happy; and then suddenly we went into "x-files meets Frankenstein" land and I was thinking "just what is this film?" and it threw me for a loop in all the wrong ways. Basically, the twist felt a bit too bizarre for the atmosphere and set-up before it. But I thought many parts of the film were great. Maybe I was in the wrong mood :S

Mark 07-23-2011 12:49 PM

That's quite an overreaction, Fin. 'The Prestige' is so amazingly well thought out. However, a little bit of your reaction makes sense because the makers had the purpose of leaving the viewers with the thought "I really have to see this movie again now".

It's a bit like 'Hoodwinked (1)' (a really ingenious animation), a puzzle that comes together in the end. I doubt that there could've been a better end to 'The Prestige'.
