Hi there. I'm a film student at the University of Southern California. Soon, I will be directing a series of short films on subjects of my choosing. I'm soliciting ideas for these films. The only constraints are as follows:

•There is no dialog (not silent, just no dialog)

•The films must be five minutes long.

If I like your idea, you'll see it made with the latest equipment (35mm film lenses, so it'll have the "hyperreal" visual style of feature films) and SAG actors (read: the pros), as well as the resources of USC behind it. It could also be shown on the big screen at film festivals or on television. You will, of course, receive a credit on the film and a copy of the finished work.

Send me a note telling me why your idea will grab viewers' attention, and briefly lay out the beginning, middle, and end. I look forward to hearing from you.

A decade ago, I did a stop-motion film about a group of shopping carts who escaped from a grocery store to their native home in the African veldt. Their escape was made more difficult due to the fact that one of them was hobbled (i.e. had a broken back wheel), and they were pursued by cart returners and the police.

And yet, you have never shown any interest in attending a single Shinda.

It's because I'm a UCLA alumna, isn't it?
