OhlalaLand Stories

Posted on by

Hello everyone, my name is Stephanie Batailler. I’m a writer and a filmmaker. 

What are OhlalaLand Stories?

OhlalaLand Stories are stories in the genre of Fantasy that bring my two passions together: Books and Cinema.

OhlalaLand_and_logo_underneath

Firstly, OhlalaLand Stories are books. At the moment, these books are fantasy short stories that I have written. I am also developing stories for comic books series. My goal, down the road, is for OhlalaLand, to have other writers, filmmakers, and creative artists joining me on this adventure.

Secondly, OhlalaLand Stories are books that would eventually become films.

You see, I’ve created OhlalaLand Stories in order to take control of my life. I had enough of emailing résumé and/or scripts to film studios without ever receiving any response. I don’t have big films credentials so why would the studios respond to me or invest in me anyway? I get that. Making movies is a business-that is why it is called: the movie business.

To get attention from the studios you need to have a product or a name that has already proven its value in marketing and profitability, and often you need both. Hence, most of today’s Hollywood movie hits are franchises and shot by famous movie directors and A-List cast.

What do franchises mean? It means that these films are based on an original work such as:

Books_into_movies

After having written a feature film script and tried to shop it around, I understood that continuing to write more scripts would just be a waste of time, energy, and money, and I that should try to find a more productive tactic.

So, one day, it just clicked!

My dream is to tell stories and be able to touch people’s hearts with them. So, I am not going to wait anymore that a fairy comes along and shakes her magic wand. Let me sit right now in Captain Kirk’s command chair. Let me concentrate on writing books, self-publish them and build an audience from there. And, once I’ll have enough OhlalaLandians (readers and supporters), I’ll turn OhlalaLand Stories into movies. ET Voilà!

What does OhlalaLand mean?

Two things: where I currently live, LOS ANGELES, and my origins, FRANCE.

OhlalaLand Illustration by Pierre Zah

Los Angeles has several nicknames: L.A., The City of Angels, The City of Flowers and Sunshine, and The Big Orange. By the way, I love that song Under the Bridge by the Red Hot Chili Peppers about The City of Angels. In the 1970’s a new term appeared: La-la Land. And since 2011, this term can be found in the edition of the Oxford English Dictionary.

“La-la land n. can refer either to Los Angeles (in which case its etymology is influenced by the common initialism for that city), or to a state of being out of touch with reality—and sometimes to both simultaneously.”

Strangely enough, this definition doesn’t mention Hollywood: Los Angeles’ most famous neighborhood and the home of the U.S. film industry. Indeed, in Los Angeles, when we speak about La-La Land, we are also referring to Hollywood. What could be more ‘out of touch with reality‘ than making movies?

Oh là là! in French is an exclamation of surprise, shock. It can also mean that something or someone is great or sexy. Sometimes, we elongate the first part and add extra o’s and pronounce it like Ooh or Ooooh là là!

What is different when you write a book instead of a script?

Book_vs_script_ohlalaland

I write with visuals in my heads. It means that I’m projecting my characters and stories into a cinematographic reality (some would question putting these two words together, but that’s another topic). Does this mean that I am just writing a script into a book format? No.

A book usually provides a more in-depth story of your characters and plot. In a traditional book-to-movie process, the author is not necessarily the screenwriter nor the director. Thus, the story can go through 3 different minds, 3 different visions-and can make, at times, fans react negatively when their favorite book is turned into a film.

With OhlalaLand Stories, the advantage is that the author is also the scriptwriter and the director. In that way, the film should remain true to the original story.

What will the readers get from OhlalaLand stories? 

  • An OhlalaLand reader will automatically become an OhlalaLand VIP. This means that he or she will get his or her name in the film credits.
At the book fair in Geneva, we had one sweepstake a day to award one OhlalaLand best reader!

    Зеркало сайта Гидра, как им пользоваться?

    Не всегда получается открыть официальный сайт маркетплейса Hydra2web. В некоторых случаях он может быть заблокирован провайдером. В этом случае, вам нужно использовать Гидра зеркало, чтобы попасть на сайт и делать покупки в обычном режиме. Зеркало сайта находится на другом хостинге и может иметь другое доменное имя. Список доступных ресурсов всегда можно найти на официальном сайте или тематических сообществах.

    Как оплатить товары на сайте Hydra market

    Подобные ресурсы, включая Hydraruzxpnew4af, принимают исключительно криптовалюту. Это необходимо для того, чтобы иметь максимальную степень анонимности. Ведь крипто кошелек почти невозможно отследить.

    Большинство бытовой электротехники и инструментов достаточно безболезненно воспринимают перепады напряжения в сети, если диапазон отклонений не превышает 10–15% от номинала — 230 В. Если скачки напряжения в сети происходят часто, может понадобиться стабилизатор напряжения. Читайте подробнее на electrotorg.ru

    I believe everything said made a ton of sense.
    But, think on this, suppose you were to write a awesome post title?
    I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your blog, however what if you added a post title that grabbed people’s attention? I mean OhlalaLand Stories –
    Books-Cinema/ Reality-Fantasy / France-USA is kinda boring.
    You could look at Yahoo’s front page and see how they create article titles to get people to click.
    You might add a related video or a related picture or two to get
    readers excited about what you’ve got to say. Just
    my opinion, it could make your blog a little livelier.

    Unfortunately, the growing popularity of funk coincided with the rise of disco, the bland Ritchie Family Donna Surnmer school of dance music, where string sections, thudding drum machine beats and sugary vocals replaced live percussion, swinging horn sections and the gritty voice of urban funk.
