WHO AM I?
I'm Drake Dalgleish! I'm an Independent Filmmaker from Longview Washington. I graduated from the New York Film Academy in 2020 with a Bachelors in Filmmaking. After the pandemic I took a break from my passion to focus on career, but I'm so excited to be back!
WHAT IS "THE TALE OF WESLEY"?
Logline: After storming out of his fathers wake, Wesley struggles for control of his own life when he meets his creator.
This funny and twisted story is a cautionary tale. It's about how we act when we're put into a corner and can't get out and finding the strength to just let go in a world that makes no sense.
While the themes may be very serious I've learned best that a humorous spin on bleak scenarios helps convey these messages best. Projects like "Barry" and "Jojo Rabbit" really inspired me to the approach of giving them a laugh and still hitting home on the big issues.
