Premiere Prompts:

 

Welcome!
Here are the first prompts from the ‘new’ Matinée Muse.
They are offered to inspire your creativity.

Perhaps you will write a poem, or a short story?
Maybe you’ll create a related artwork, or a photograph?

However you express yourself creatively, please create that expression, post it to your site, and link it here.

 

• • •

This week’s first Matinée Muse creativity prompt is:

“life in the shadows”

Inspired by the current film, ‘The Dark Knight’.

 

• • •

This week’s second Matinée Muse creativity prompt is:

“the spark of life”

Inspired by the classic 1982 film, ‘Blade Runner’.

 

• • •

Please share with us your poem, short story, artwork, photograph — or whatever you’ve been inspired to create.

Express yourself!

NOTE: to learn more about the film, click on its poster

    I really love the idea of a creativity prompt, it feels so freeing. Here’s my take on life in the shadows:

    First of all, let me thank you from the bottom of my heart for creating this site for all of us closet writers.

    Secondly, I went to see The Dark Knight this weekend. I just cannot say enough good things about this film, specifically, Heath Ledger. He SHOULD win the Academy Award, he was brilliant and put a good many formidable villains to shame. I never pay to see a movie twice, with this one, I’d pay over and over. It is a classic and I am just in complete awe.

    That being said, an Ode to Heath in his perfect execution of the Joker:
    My Dark Knight

    I created an art piece, and a trio of haiku, exclusively for the “life in the shadows” prompt. This is a personal comment directed at the gluttonous ‘big oil’ companies, and the unchecked human consumption of fossil fuel. This ensemble is entitled: Too Long in the Shadow.
