Work is still ongoing with my dissertation but I'm still trying to get a balance between the two. Also spent the last couple of days trying to decide what folklore subject to do the film on. It's not as if there was little choice, it's more to do with finding something that I'm going to be entheusiastic about to stick with.

In the end, I decided on Jack O Kent, an anti-hero who made numerous deals with the devil and continually tricked him. It's easiest appeal would probably be to kids and anti-heroes are fairly good characters to use. Started the script yesterday but not entirely sure where to take it (modern setting or not?, should the Devil be obvious or more subtle in terms of character and appearence?, how will all the events be combined together?, Should I include other Jack O Kent myths like forming sugarloaf mountain? etc)
