Paranormal Project: Ghostly Encounters with Director Ron Howard

While I was working on my Paranormal Project, I came across movie director Ron Howard’s contest on Youtube called Project Imagin8tion. Unfortunately, I was too late for the first part of the contest that involved setting, mood, and character which was intended to inspire a short film. However, I still had an opportunity for the second part of the contest (sponsored by Canon) which involved using script inserts from the movie and interpreting them with photography. You can imagine how excited I was when I saw that the movie not only had a paranormal theme, but also used words and all of the other creative and imaginative things right up my alley!

I had less than a week to create up to 8 photos for each script insert if I wanted to enter the contest. This was right before Christmas, so I was traveling, making my gifts, and working, but somehow I managed to come up with 6 out of 8 that I was happy with.

Script insert: “Lisle moves closer, pushing branches as she goes. And that’s when she sees it.”

Deep Impressions

Script insert: “Suddenly, the creature transforms into the figure of a woman.”

Out of the Darkness

Script insert: “She slowly and gingerly steps back from the edge.”

Choices

Script insert: “She is Joanne, his wife, a beautiful ghost.”

What Was

Script insert: “A hollow wind echoes all around.”

Abandoned

Script insert: “Suddenly, I was in this place I’d never seen… And everything was white.”

Distant Memories

Paranormal Project: Ghost Town

For several months I’ve been working on what I call the Paranormal Project. It’s another of my artography projects, but the reason it’s taken several months to even begin is because I needed the right material to do so. I have a ton of photos, but if I don’t have what I need to make what I see in my mind, then I have to find it.

This is the first of a series. I call it “Ghost Town”.
