Imagin8ion

 Imagin8ion project.

Produced by Ron Howard and directed by his daughter Bryce Dallas Howard, the short film "When You Find Me"  is inspired by a photo contest submission.  Winning photos represent parts of the film: setting, time, character, mood, relationship, goal, obstacle, and the unknown.

The trailer is intriguing but the premise of the project is a mixed bag of emotions for me.  On one hand I think it is absolutely sweet to see daughter and father work together on a project but that's the family girl inside of me talking.  And while I do appreciate seeing random photogs gain hollywood fame, I can't help but feel the whole project capitalizes on other people's talent.  I suppose that's the point?  Give away your intellectual property for free and gain a little recognition now instead of spending most of your career waiting to get noticed.

In any case, the cinematography is quite enchanting.

I will have to follow and watch the full short film!
