Filmmaking
Apologies for the loooong delay in getting this out.
Why I want to be a filmmaker, reasons ranked in order of importance:
1) The media is huge influence to the culture, and without Christians having their influence in the media, then a large portion of the potential change that they produce is this culture is gone. Were called to stand out in the world, not receed into the background(yes, the roles come into play, but I believe I have covered that enough on Summer and Shimmer's blogs).
2) MY talents do not lie on the mathmatical field. Nor do they lie in other types of art(drawing(stickmen!!!! ;)), painting, etc.). On the subject of talents, I have a small amount of talent in the area of writing(I'll post one of my storys later on. Also, I won a trip for 4 to any place in the eastern end of Ontario by writing a story about a trip to B.C. I had once taken and sending to a contest Wesjet had put on). Writing is useful for filmmaking, because you write screenplays(I'll post one I've made\adapted with my story).
3) I have always loved movies. I mean, it the ultimate dream for me.
4) I once edited a short clip and inserted music to it....it was sooooo fun, I think it was the most fun I've ever had.
So there you go. I think theres more reasons, but it's 5 to 11 and I have to be in bed in 5 mins, so I hope you enjoyed reading this, and I'm looking forward to your comments(and perhaps seeing some of you on Thursday?)
