–Who is David Cleveland?
I am an aspiring filmmaker in love with animation! I have loved cartoons my entire life, growing up watching them on Saturday mornings. I’ve always dreamed of making my own. I have been working on my claymation for over a decade. I am also getting married in 28 days!
–What inspired you to become a filmmaker?
What inspires me to be a filmaker is the creative freedom to make your own world! I love the process of taking an idea and bringing it to life! I have always wanted to create a cartoon around a band so that kids could have something else to imagine about other than guns or violence.
–Do you think the cinema can bring a change in the society?
Cinema can and does bring change to the world all the time! Showing a different perspective or a new idea can open someone’s eyes and cause them to follow their dreams.
–What would you change in the world?
If I could change something about the world it would be all the violence. Erase it from our DNA where the thought does not even occur to us.
–Where do you see the film industry going in the next 100 years?
The film industry I believe will take a leap forward with technology. I imagine a time where you can be submersed in to the action with augmented reality or load up your favorite old movie and live it as one of the characters.
