young productions

Even from a young age, my imagination has always been a strong influence over what I do and how I do it. This led me to draw up comics (inspired around a cartoon series 'Avatar - The Last Airbender).

After watching 'Lord of the Rings' and 'Narnia', I began to be obsessed with the fantasy genre. I began building and painting miniature figurines, often being so entranced in what I was doing that I would be up for hours just painting. At the age of 6, I took it upon myself to try to replicate a short story like the 2 mentioned above and to this day I still have the copy and figurines.The images below are just a few example of hundreds.

The best thing about the story and painting however, was not the fact I wrote or painted it well, but the fact that I was proud that I did something about this creative urge I have and utilised it to create a product of which is completely me expressing myself. This satisfaction of completion has only gotten stronger throughout the years and even more so, the product has become better and better due to consistent improvement. One day, I will have the tools to create something that expresses myself completely.

But why media over writing? Well although I enjoy transforming idea into a product, I feel it can be best done over film for as the saying goes "pictures tell a thousand words". Pen and paper never seems to be enough for me for even after it being completed I want to develop it further where my ideas can literally move and speak for itself. Wouldn't it be amazing to see something and know that this all came from one little idea in your head?
