Dreamkeeper

When I started writing the script, I knew I wanted to tell a story about having a change of perspective, how it could have a huge affect on a person's life and the lives around them. I knew I wanted to highlight the wonderful simplicity of a child. The real difference between Tom and Julie boils down to her cheerful, childlike perspective. Tom lives in a state of mind that most all adults have come to accept. He is bogged down by the rules and expectations of society, just inclined to do his job and not get involved in other people's issues. When Julie bring forth her pure view of the world, she sees that the people are in trouble. It's her natural reaction to want to help. Tom sees the same situation and believes it's none of his concern.

Although "Dreamkeeper" is set in a world of dreams, it's not a film strictly about dreams. Instead, it's about our perspective and roles in the real world. Don't simply be a bystander in our everyday life. I knew when I started the concept art for the dream world that I wanted to create a world that is grounded in reality yet still has mystical elements. Making the film, I believe we achieved what I had hoped for. Thanks to the enormously talented cast and crew. It's been an enjoyable experience bringing the film to life.
