For my first Dreams project, I made a short film about a dream I had. I used some of the brief images I remembered from that dream to create a sort of dream dictionary for my class to follow, allowing them to try to interpret my dream. But not all things can be interpreted so easily, especially when dreams turn to nightmares. Orginally I was going to make up things for the dream interpretation part to make the whole piece more foreboding. However, after I had shot the footage and put together a rough cut of the scenes, I decided it was more omnious and creepy to leave the cheerful interpretations in. And, what's a project without Michael Jackson? I've been known to use him in a few of my projects over the years and couldn't miss the opportunity to do so with my first project.
