As an aspiring director I don't know if I wanna give out my ideas and then another aspiring director will steal them.

Ahh well...

I would like to make a film of a huge epic scale filmed with experimental camera, editing and narrative techniques.

No one has really done that. Every epic has a certain style or plays it safe in the camera and editing department. Theres only two epics I can think of that used a somewhat experiment/new techinques and that was "Lawrence of Arabia". The other is Scorsese's new film "Gangs of New York" is of a epic scale and looking at his film making trends in his last couple of movies, the experimental (and exciting) camera and editing has gotten wilder so I am assuming, from a documentary and trailer this one will be no exception.
