Concrete Babylon - Project Announcement


The wish of making a feature film has been with me for several years but I have always had too big fear of failing, because of lack of knowledge, lack of skill or of finance or because of some other excuse, that I've never tried to fulfill my wish. I only spent my time trying to educate myself and "waited for the time to be right". But theoretical knowledge is only knowledge in theory until applied in practise and experienced, and waiting for the right time is waiting for something that never will happen since waiting never makes anything happen.

I've decided that now is the only right time for Concrete Babylon to happen.

I've started a sub-page for Concrete Babylon on this site where I will upload images and film-clips. I will also write updates for how Concrete Babylon is going here on the blog so that it'll be easier for those interested to keep updated.
Hopefully you will find Concrete Babylon interesting and enjoy the film when finished.

Thank you for taking your time,
Peter Hertzberg

Story Rules Part 2: Don't Reinvent the Wheel

(You can find " Story Rules Part 1: Kill your ego " here) Storytelling should be easy. It is something we do everyday. It is something we've taken part of since we where born. It is something that comes naturally when we speak. So why then is storytelling so hard? Some how we start "unlearning" what we know when we start over-thinking on a subject. Just as when we try to walk perfect and natural we end up walking stiff and unnaturally, when we try to tell a story perfectly the story often ends up being stiff and unnatural. Often the reason we do this is because we try to reinvent the wheel as a cube.

Story Rules Part 4: Lacuna - Create Space for the Audience

For the previous parts in the story rules series: Story Rules Part 1: Kill Your Ego Story Rules Part 2: Don't Reinvent the Wheel Story Rules Part 3: Story Is Character & Character Is Story Every storyteller loves subtext. Subtext is what takes a story to a new level, and does so by creating a synergy that lets 1+1=3. I believe it does so by adding a hidden number to the equation 1+1(+1)=3. This hidden number is the audience. Or with other words: Subtext is the part of the story told in the audiences imagination. To let the audience participate in the story they need to have room to do so. A gap needs to be created. I like to call this gap " Lacuna ".
