That's a very intense post Vincent.
A lot of information there. I scanned down and saw the beach scene you are referring to, they look peaceful and similar, though I suspect that your film has some more emotional content. I see faces of determination and close up shots like what might be action / drama.
I wouldn't try to make my own film at this point, but it might be interesting to try and make a rough film to use as a foundation for a graphic novel.
Storyboard Reference material type thing.
I've thought about doing that with landscapes for my next project.
I would need to develop relationships with sex workers or sex friends, or exhibitionists to make a short film for a graphic novel -- at which point, I would basically be a pornographer.
Not too bad, Nice couples fucking by the ocean. Sounds peaceful / worth watching.
That's the cool thing about graphic novels, I can just paint the scenes I'm looking for. Of course, reference helps.
