tysm ash! i hope you're having a great day!!

daisy — what’s your best childhood memory?

one time, my cousins and i made our own version of mission impossible on a tiny nokia phone. i directed and wrote the screenplay, and my cousins starred in it as a group of invincible spies. i don't think i'll ever forget the excitement surrounding the creation of that video! oh to be that age again and create without fear of judgement...glorious

gerbera — neon or pastel?

i WISH i was the type of person to pull off neon, but i'm more of a pastels person myself

tulip — lucky number?

17!

thank you so much for the ask ash! i hope you're having a wonderful day!!

11. favourite animated film?

whisper of the heart (1995)! i actually think this + when marnie was there are the most underrated studio ghibli films. i also have a soft spot for sleeping beauty (1959), but that's mainly for how stunning the animation looks.

20. top 5 directors?

this is tough, because i haven't really found a director whose work has stuck with me yet! when i do i will definitely update this!

41. most beautiful film? (in terms of cinematography)

gosh SO MANY i'm a sucker for cinematography, but the umbrellas of cherbourg has some gorgeous, candy-coloured cinematography that i loved!

🧵 thread: what is a recent creative project that you are proud of?

broadly speaking, this year’s resurgence of my interest in writing my own poetry. i’ve improved my skills quite a bit in a short time period, even if for the last month or so i’ve been a bit stuck. 

in the same vein, it’s led me to the creation of my discord server, the orangery literary society, which has been a delight: everyone there is wonderful and supportive of one another, the vibes are excellent! (if any of you would like to join, DM me!)
