| storyboards by ridley scott for the films alien and blade runner. |
can i just say that i am so psyched to see prometheus tonight?!
i am not much of a chick flick girl; i basically live for action and fantasy! {as well as the occasional indie and old movie flick} i also absolutely love any movie that looks inspiring. i studied cinematography while at school so when i see shots that inspire me...i'm pretty much sold on the movie. well, this was the case with prometheus.
the other day a thought popped into my head :: just how many films has ridley scott done?! seemed like a million to me - so i imdb'd it of course. as i read more about him as a director, i gained so much respect for his work. did you know that he actually studied graphic design? not only that, but he likes to do his own storyboards - which is really unusual for a director. for the film alien, he earned the film a much larger budget just because his storyboards were so beautifully intricate. as you can tell from the images above.
aren't they amazing?! i love finding these well-rounded, passionate creatives. it makes me feel less foreign in my field. whenever i get down on myself about not having a defined focus in my art, i like to think of these types of successful people.
so my advice is to ::
dabble fearlessly in anything that intrigues you.
& NEVER FEEL GUILTY ABOUT DOING SO...
you never know what you will find that sparks that creative fire inside you.
