O'Dwyer Pictures Presents
Hi there, I'm David. I'm a Writer/Director currently based in Geneva. My goal is to keep a blog containing both personal and professional views relating to Film. Stick around if you like what i write!

Making use of available resources
So I’ve beenwriting parts of my sci-fi feature for a while now, but it seems like I’ve hit a block and can’t find where to go from there.. So I’ve decided to put what I learnt in Film School into practice.
The exercise we had to practice was creating a documentary based nearly entirely on Archive footage. This included YouTube videos and other hosting websites. The footage was then used in a different context than its original one.
So anyway I decided that I’m going to use archived videos to make myself the introduction of my film. I can do this for free essentially, with the voice acting help of friends.

She's Gone - Shortfilm + Script
She’s Gone is a shortfilm that I wrote and directed in the fall of 2010 before I left London. I sent it to the Encounters Film Festival in bristol this summer, but sadly it did not get shortlisted for screening. However it is available to watch there with all of the other shortfilms that were sent in which did not make it, so let me know if anyone goes there and sees it!
This was the first experience I had shooting my own movie outside of student conditions, where every penny that I put in went towards something that I was making for myself, not for a project or a good grade.
You can follow the link to find the script, and you can view the shortfilm itself underneath:

The times they are a changin’
Some of you who follow my blog may have noticed the complete revamp of the layout and content on here… That’s because I got tired of my old blog, and I didn’t feel like it had much to give in regards to what I do. So here is “O’Dwyer Pictures Presents” mark II.
I’ve already posted a few scripts that I wrote, as well as a succession of short stories that I am currently working on towards a Feature film.
I hope that all of you will enjoy what I have to offer on here, and I hope that I haven’t upset anyone with this change. I’d love to know your thoughts so send me a question of leave a comment if you have anything to say.
All the best,
David

Hope - Territory Unknown 10
This is part of the feature film that I am currently writing called Hope. Hope is about a man who is sent into space to re-establish contact with an alien race before a virus on Earth wipes out mankind.
I am writing this idea in novel form in separate short stories first before joining them all together and writing a screenplay. Stay tuned for more!
