So – in my true spare time, of course – I’m exploring the lastest distraction idea which, on the face of it, seems to offer an intriguing (high-concept) premise within an achievable (ultra-low) budget.
Burning questions are sketched out: who is it about? what needs to happen? does it make sense?
Yes – I know what it’s about.
Yes – I know what happens.
But it’s not making sense.
I try rushing the idea from one-sentence idea to one-page concept in a lazy attempt to resolve the nonsensicalness. Uh-uh. No matter how creative I try to be, one plus two plus three will not equal the five that I want.
I refuse to be cowed.
The idea is nifty.
The concept is almost there.
The budget is appealing.
Time, I suppose, to approach this with the patience and persistence of water on stone a spoilt child whining for some parental attention.
