Telling A Story

Well in this day of high dollar software and effects packages it seems that now anything is possible for the novice filmmaker.  For those of us that can not afford the latest and greatest there is still the art of telling a story.  I believe that this is at the core of filmmaking.  I have watched movies in the past where I was caught up in the visual effects so much I didn't realize that the story was as weak as a soggy saltine cracker.  Now please don't misunderstand me I love awesome jaw dropping effects and I would love to have the latest version of Adobe Premier / After Effects to edit all my projects but alas I am just a Po Boy.  So I will dedicate my next projects to the story telling and see if I can do it without special effects. Until next time, It's your thang, do whatcha wanna do.
