About Me

Splosh! Pain! Stretch! Push! A boy! Placenta! A boy with a shock of dark hair. So it was that Owen Williams was born. The years drew on, the black hair turning blonde, among other events. Now he has achieved a Bachelor of Arts in Television and Film Design and has set about becoming that which 20% of university graduates don't want to become - a filmmaker. With the trusty partnership of Adam Wright, a man of many talents, they are truly forming Tomfoolery Pictures as a video production company and are set to embark on a journey of long nights, early mornings, stress and, hopefully, a lot of cash to make up for it (unfortunately, this is probably the least feasible part).

My Interests

Unfortunately, our current tasks mean that one of my main interests must be 'sitting and thinking'. Aside from that I enjoy all the regulars that make you sound normal and amiable, obviously films and making them, drawing, music, reading and writing, the odd drink (and the even one, ho ho ho) etc etc.

I'd like to meet:

Jack Nicholson. Everyone knows this. Among other luminaries, new friends and such.Below: The Invisible Detective II - Sometimes, we all bleed red.The Invisible Detective II - Teaser 2

Music:

Annoying. I can enjoy almost everything (minus anything ranting about bitches, hoes, cribs etc) from Lemon Jelly to Prokofiev, Old Blue Eyes to Dragonforce, The Decemberists through Howard Shore and everywhere inbetween. Though it's worth mentioning the awesomeness of friends Kid Ego, David E. Sugar, Wasp in the Attic, and The Melancholy Death of Lost Boy. If you're lucky you may, one day, hear my own compositions - 'Amazing' and 'Amazing Strikes Back'. Classics.
