Christmas in St. Petersburg

Besides the "29 ways of staying creative", it has been a while since I've posted something. So I thought it's a good time for an up-date.

A lot happened since the last time. First of all I continued working on a script I wrote at Prague Filmschool last year. I extended the script and did some more research about the Czech history in the last 300 years to apply on my story. I got some interested results. I will tell more about this project in a few weeks. Now I will focus on my stay in St. Petersburg.

It is the 3rd time since 5 months I'm St. Peterburg. I witnessed the summer, fall and the start of the winter and its incredible to see how the days turns from light until night. I have never thought the sunlight can change so quick. And one of the most magical moments is the start of the winter. On my birthday, magic started for the first time of the year. Especially with all the christmas lights in the streets.

Besides the Christmas spirit, I am also in St. Petersburg for some project with Tree Film Productions. A few projects are running and I have met some interesting people. The D.O.P I am going to work with for our next project, also organizes filmevents. I participated with 2 films and I witnessed for the 1st time the opinion of viewers, who had never seen my films before. It was interesting to hear what their reactions were. Especially when the feedback is in Russian. The critical feedback made me think what to do with my future projects. Hopefully this will turn out better for my films.
