Here it goes!

Today is the day! 

Hello, my name is Hannah Krohn and for the next 6 weeks, I will be creating (and constantly blogging about) a film opening I will be creating! I am a little slow with the technology aspect of movie making...so this should be interesting. But, I am very excited to begin working on a film opening on a subject close to my heart: the world of diving.

The ocean has been near and dear to me ever since I was a little girl. I grew up around boats with my father and grandfather and began scuba diving when I was 10 years old. One topic that has always fascinated me is the immense influence women have had on the dive industry. Although I am still unsure which genre I will definitely be tackling (probably historical fiction), I want to highlight the importance of the women in the Women Divers Hall of Fame who are the "pioneers, leaders,innovators, and world record holders throughout the international diving community."

I may choose one or multiple influential women and create main characters based off of them and their stories of how they came to be the powerful role models they are today.

In my film opening, I would like to introduce the main characters while also giving a glimpse of the beauty of the world of diving. My film opening will include a multitude of underwater footage and will be primarily shot in the Florida Keys.

I am especially excited to film this opening because one of my lifelong dreams is to film underwater footage for National Geographic. I am happiest underwater and this project gives me a great excuse to scuba dive!

Until next time...
