A Filmmaker's Guide to: Sci-Fi and Fantasy
In this chapter of ‘the filmmaker’s guide’ we’re actually going to be learning about literature and film together. I understand that many of you are sitting in university during difficult times and finding it increasingly hard to study and I understand that many of you who are not at university or not planning on it are possibly stuck of what to do, need a break or even need to catch up on learning film before you get to the next level. This guide will be brief but will also contain: new vocabulary, concepts and theories, films to watch and we will be exploring something taboo until now in the ‘filmmaker’s guide’ - academia (abyss opens). Each article will explore a different concept of film, philosophy, literature or bibliography/filmography etc. in order to give you something new to learn each time we see each other. You can use some of the words amongst family and friends to sound clever or you can get back to me (email in bio) and tell me how you’re doing. So, strap in and prepare for the filmmaker’s guide to film studies because it is going to be one wild ride.

"Shamials"
I'm excited to share that I am nearly done writing my first fictional fantasy book. I think I will end up making a 2 or 3 book series, though not sure I can focus enough energy to do more than that. The title is as soon in the article title, it is called Shamials. The word Shamial comes from the creature developed for the story. Shapeshifters through ancestry, but more animal than human. Most of these creatures only shift into one or two forms. Any species, real or mythical (by real world standards) can be traits of a Shamial.

Enchantment
The sun beamed through my windows heating the house to the perfect temperature. Making it that much harder to leave my sanctuary to brave the cold world outside. Slipping on my toffy coloured trench coat, stuffing mittens in the pockets just in case, I stepped through the threshold of my front door. The cool air hit me like a slap in the face. The crunch of fallen leaves echoed with each step I took. Something was comforting in the change of seasons. Especially when fall was poking its head around the corner.

Vestal Virgins were prominent members of ancient Roman society
I first heard the term "Vestal Virgins" in the 1967 film Cassino Royale. I did not think much about it even though I have watched the movie at least 25 times and heard the character of Mata Hari's daughter (Joanne Pettit) utter these two words every time. Recently I was watching the 1932 version of The Mummy and a male character mentioned the Vestal Virgins. This time I was curious about these women so I decided to find out all I could about them. It is said that in ancient Rome, the Vestals or Vestal Virgins were priestesses of Vesta, who was the mytohological goddess of the hearth.
