Flying Lotus to Direct Film

2011-10-06 by WashboardSuds | 24 Comments
Electronic music producer Steven Ellison, aka Flying Lotus, announced that he's planning to direct his own feature film. From an interview with LA Weekly:
Quote:
I’m trying to write the script right now, so I’m working on it. I finally got the idea that I feel is like good enough to represent things I really would like to see in a movie you know. For a while, I was like, “Let’s just make a movie because I wanna make a movie” but this one is like, “I wanna see this shit so I gotta see it through.” It’s too early to say who I’m gonna work with on it but you know I got a lot of really amazing talented filmmakers in my life right now. I’ve just been bouncing my ideas off them trying to build the script. I don’t wanna say too much about it yet.

He was an amateur filmmaker before he started making beats, so this should rule

Dude hasn't even wrote the script yet. This is news when the script is done and he has funding.

Nice avatar, Banana.

I just couldn't get into Cosmogramma (the beats were nice, I guess, but I was like "Is this it?"), but he seems like a smart, articulate guy so I'll most definitely check out his film when it releases in five years.

this isn't news. he said he wants to make a film and is writing a script; none of his statements were concrete enough that it can be assumed a film is actually going to be produced.

I still need to get something by him. I think I'd be more on top of it if he worked with actual musicians. The term "laptop musician" just doesn't sit well with me.
