I was asked by the Atlanta Film Festival to answer 10 Questions regarding I Am The Bluebird and myself as the director, and thought this is just random enough to put on my blog as well. So here it is! Enjoy!
_____________________________________________________________________________
1. If you could describe your film using only 3 words, what would they be?
Happiness, Sacrifice, Love
2. Where do you see your film in 5 years?
I hope that by then it has played well enough through festivals and on DVD that I will be making another film.
3. Have you ever been to Atlanta? If so what’s your favorite place to visit? If not, where would you like to visit?
I grew up outside of Atlanta and absolutely love the city, but I don’t have a favorite place. It really just depends on the event at the moment, which in this case is the Atlanta Film Festival, and more specifically Landmark #4 on Friday at 7:30! However, since I live in Los Angeles now, I am really looking forward to having a great ‘J. Christopher’s’ breakfast again.
4. What motivated you to make this film?
The first inspiration for this film came from an article I read on CNN about artificial evolution. I don’t want to say too much about it because I fear giving too much away, but I found it fascinating that the technology that I thought seemed so far away was in fact much closer than we thought. I decided to center those ideas around a broken family, in desperate need of mending that no technology could ever heal.
