Marie Bryan organised and improvised this performance. Marie Bryan was going to get 0% done, until Joe Rynne said We'll do it. Joe also looked after the camerawork, the transport of Draoi Buí, interest from passers-by, and Marie's morale. Joe has a liking for fun, and an ability to get things done. Romantic chemistry made this film.
Marie Bryan is a professional artist, based in Ireland. She is debuting in film. She is inspired by art lecturers at Atlantic Technological University in Galway, Ireland, and motivated to launch both a rocket and a career.
Joe is her charismatic partner and cameraman.
Marie is a debut director. She is a professional artist, beginning in film.
Marie envisages the introduction of a religion as a very high art form. In this microfilm, she allows Draoi Buí Draoi Cróga Draoi Scéil (Irish language) to tell his story. His coming will start the party to end all parties. There are echoes of Catholic beliefs here, as benefits the short format: a truly original religion would be without the potential for associative fun and comedy.
Fun and comedy are a priority for the Director. Performing herself, she allows spontaneity to bring its sparkle, its surprise. She invites people to laugh at her moves, as they relate to her efforts to launch a rocket which has no engine. The idea of an everlasting birthday party is the fun wish of the Director.
The apparent lack of alien life, due to the lack of water in other star systems led the Director to the idea of sending some water out, in water bomb balloons. The balloons, being yellow, gravitated immediately towards the sun. Unlike Icarus, their journey is successful: the sun's thirst is quenched, and He grants Earth both a sunspark and jerky rotations. Armageddon is looked upon lightly, by the Artist/Director. If it's God doing, the SunGod's doing, it's gotta be good.
The Director and her crew, Joe Rynne, will create more film in the West of Ireland. To maximize creativity, props are built first, and improvised performance will follow, so we cannot say exactly what comes next.
