Proposal to Change

Only a week into twenty-time, I have found my ambition to play the ukulele a fantasy rather than reality. First, after consulting with my parents, they did not want to buy me the instrument. They were not convinced by the "online learning" idea. My father, an extremely skilled violinist, believes you always need an instructor. I do agree with him, now seeing what a commitment an instrument really is. Instead, I am pursuing a subject that has interested me for a while. This subject is film making. To me, communication is the most important ability in life. Film is a way for an individual to portray ideas and thoughts. Now, I wanted to do something different with film. That lead me to the unique form of filmmaking called stop-motion. I plan to utilize legos and possibly drawings on paper to make my film. Ms. Roy also recommended stikbots to help me film. Star Wars has announced a fan film contest, and I hope to make a Star Wars themed film that I can submit. I will utilize my time during class to research film and camera techniques. At home, I will film. I hope to produce either one long film or several short films.
