Film Making

Learning about filmmaking more and more has really given my a different look on my writing and my possible future in it that may change from the original goal of the theatre. This year, Fences, a play by August Wilson, went to the Oscars. Denzel directing this movie really inspired me to write because of my love for August Wilson's Pittsburgh Cycle of plays. Each setting was placed ten years apart from the previous play and characters had a rich history to presesent.

It made me asks the question, " What is it to be a writer working on world that can grow, expand beyond the original premise?"

Obviously, there is the backstory that must be present in order to pull it off but what more is needed.
