Bootstrap
Productions is the trio of Alex Dalton, Steve Fardys and Nathan
Price. The company was formed to combine our creative talents and
allow us the freedom to experiment with different projects and roles.
Each member supports each project in a different capacity, allowing
us to learn filmaking from the ground up, from script to final credits. |

The
Bootstrap Hypothesis, originated by nuclear
physicist Geoffrey Chew, denies the existence of fundamental constituents
of matter. In fact, it accepts
no fundamental entities whatsoever — no fundamental
laws, equations or principles.
If there are no fundamental
laws to which our existence
is tied, different ideas that contradict each other are
not necessarily mutually exclusive.
In other words, as long
as a thought, idea, emotion or
story is complete in and of itself, it does not need to
agree with any other thoughts, ideas, emotions or
stories in order to be "right."
What the hell does that
have to do with making movies?
If a storyteller is not
tied to preconceived rules,
forumlas or loyalties, he is free to create anything. |
