July 31, 2013 - Introduction

Hello there, I'm Phil Leavenworth, Chief Producer-Writer-Director of Inverted Materialism Films. A relatively new film "company" that serves as a front for my wacky, if ultimately discovered to be, insane ramblings.

As a producer, I handle the production of a film project and make sure I do my job with assembling a workable crew and cast (and on occasion hire a director) to ensure the project runs smoothly.

As a writer, I speak the language of ideas. The old screenwriting maxim, "you can turn a good script into a bad movie, but you can't turn a bad script into a good movie," has served as a valuable tool.

As a director, I am the eyes of the writer. I can see new ways to explore old worlds or rediscover old ways to explore new ones. Filmmaking is a visual art and without spectacle it is a stage-play.

I have spent 12 years writing stories and about 8 trying to make them, my hope is that before this decade is out I would have amassed enough stories to validate all my sleepless nights and shindigs I've missed to write nonsense. All in all, this adventure is just beginning and I'd like you to join in and see where things go. You may be surprised. :)
