Welcome To The Page Of Navid Tharani. 

Historically Filmmaking has been maybe the most inaccessible art forms, compared to painting, where you only need a paint brush and canvas or writing where you only require a pen and paper..

...Filmmaking has always required this enormous infrastructure behind it. And now due to modern technology I like to think that it is just about accessible to everyone.  

For me, I see Filmmaking as an art. 

Even in from a very young age I found myself engulfed within the world Film and loving stories. Stories are at the heart of any good film, and can be the decider to whether the film receives a sequel or fails completely.  My first encounter with the media process was due to the heavy influence of my brother, by creating short films and videos for entertainment.

As I developed throughout the years, I began reading more about the art of filmmaking. And one of the texts that really stuck with me was called 'The Writers journey' by Christoper Vogler. Who is extremely renowned in the field of writing screenplays. He breaks down critically acclaimed blockbuster such as Star wars, Lion King  and Lord of the rings. Into the different stages of the journey, and mapping them chronologically to show the sequence a character must undergo to develop and thrive. Also, character arcs are explored in order to show the real meanings behind why they are used in the industry or for storytelling purposes.  This helps the storyteller by making them understand rather than just aimlessly adding random characters.
