Soundstage 6: The Screen
The movie screen: the place where people get to relax, be themselves, pretend, escape, dream, go on an adventure, experience the past, see the future, find a window into their hopes, or experience their greatest fears.
The screen is one of C.W.’s favorite places to be!
The screen is a place to see triumph or failure on a small scale or, a large one. It’s a place to see loss or success, and experience the struggle of one, or many. It can be used as a portal into the intimacy of a group, a family, a city, a country, or even a galaxy far, far away.
Above and beyond, it’s a place where all of us, no matter our race, religion, gender, ethnicity, background, personality, or circumstance can see that we are all the same. We can learn from film that kindness, humanity, understanding, and unity, are things that can be dreamed and achieved.
We are all affected by stories that have the potential to change our lives. C.W. knows that he certainly is, and has been affected by them every day. For on The Screen, our lives are reflected back at us from a chair in a dark room, hopefully with a drink, and handful of candy or popcorn in our lap. In that moment, we realize that nothing else matters except our beating hearts, and that guiding light of projector shine on a movie screen.
Like film, story wraps around itself into a canister and spools out through a projector, to then return back the way it came. Hopefully in the process, touching our hearts along the way, before gathering back into the can.
This creates a complete experience for the people. A perfect circle.
A Perfect Circle
That same screen is the final destination for C.W.’s work. Work that has made its way out of the heart, through the musician's vision, and into C.W.’s hands. A man who realizes music’s potential in story and has created them on display in his Studio. The buzz around his screenplays will lead to permission by the musicians, then, to attachment of collaborators who want to see that same vision come to life. With collaborators in action, they will work hard and watch it come to life on a movie screen and out into the hearts of the people to continue to inspire. It is a complete circle… the NeverEnding Story and a chance for C.W. and his Studios to see the work, the music, the artists, the fans, and the filmmakers come together in a theatre experience of a lifetime. An experience that celebrates story, inspired by the music, infused into light, and projected out in a dream. This will be the start of something big, a process that will gain attention, build, and inspire The Community that will arrive, participate, stay for a lifetime, and pass his stories down through the generations.
