JJ Abrams: Mystery Box
I am learning many new things that film and computer science professors didn’t think to tell me or didn’t know before I graduated. It’s rather exciting to still learn when I am no longer a “student.” We are all students of the things we have a passion for. One of the most talked about things I’ve run across in the last week is a talk by JJ Abrams. He is the producer of the TV show Lost and the recent film Cloverfield, the upcoming Star Trek, etc. When JJ explains his concept of the mystery box, it gave me a fresh way of looking at story creation. I hope I can work with this guy some day. Until that time, I have plenty of things to think about and create. There aare plenty of other things I’ve been reading or run across, but I can’t share all my secrets. Can I? Well in that case….
