2012 SFF FILM TITLE

Claire Benoit

My interest in CFF:

I'm an aspiring film maker

My home region is:

Capital Region

What I do:

I am a writer.

My current project is:

A work of fiction taking place in present day New Orleans and highlighting the unique history and culture of the city.

Laurels, awards and other accomplishments:

I am a current student of psychology and social & behavioral science. I am a poet with a background of personal experiences that has afforded me great empathy toward all walks of humanity. I hope that my experiences extend beyond serving my own interests (largely ego driven) toward helping others tangibly and/or esoterically.

While many of my articles have been published for marketing companies and SEO engines, I have kept my creative projects to myself. I hope to have the opportunity to participate in the 48-hour film project as an exercise in opening up and giving, if that makes sense. I am a passionate writer with great ideas and, I feel, a keen eye for characters.

This will be my first experience with others, but hardly my first literary adventure. I define my best as the creation of opportunities for others to give theirs. The gold is in the soul of the characters. I am excited and grateful to be a part of your community.
