At the very heart of documentary, there is an issue and a message at hand.
the passing on of this message to the
audience is usually the reason that the film was made in the first place.
Documentaries have long been used as an instrument to inspire change in their
audience, be it social change or inner change.
The focus of the film and the subject matter it is dealing with must be kept in mind at all
times.
in-depth knowledge on the subject would be
extremely valuable in creating an insightful and engaging script.
The amount of research a
scriptwriter puts in is directly related to the ‘value’ of the film.
A film doesn’t adhere to our dimensions of time
and space. Once made, it continues to exist in a little bubble of its own,
transcending the limits of our present lives. A screenwriter must understand that
writing for a film means creating a being that should have a life of its own long
after the writer has moved on from it.

You are known in the universe as the ‘seekers’. You ask questions when many others do not even bother to think in that direction. You strive to remember where you have come from, you seek the oneness of love that you know lives as a singular event within your heart and you look for that in the eyes of all that you meet.

It is up to you to explore your thoughts
and dream who you want to be.
(Become conscious and create)
As you endure your journey,
believe in the sincerity of your dreams.
Through my own journey I have learned that enjoying the adventure of dreams is a task of inner growth and acceptance because the path that you find yourself on can sway and waver, carrying you to places and opportunities far greater than your dreams imagined. :)
