I just found this blog today while browsing the web and thought it would serve as a great resource. I am an upcoming Senior at NC STATE university and just recently learned how to work Final Cut Pro, a VX2100 camera, and some basic sound equipment. I just finished piecing together a few very short films and am currently editing a slightly longer one.
I've always been fascinated by film, but it wasn't until a couple of years ago that I decided that I wanted to make a career out of it. The first two years of college I wandered through course work and had vague ambitions of some sort of career in Psychology.
On a whim I took a horror film class my Sophomore year and it became the turning point in my college career. I was introduced to such innovative directors as Kurosawa and Brakhage, and revolutionary films like "Peeping Tom" and "Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari." I immediately knew that I wanted to make films.
So here I am today. A year away from graduating and a short film series in production. I am looking forward to meeting film enthusiasts who I can learn from, help, and share ideas. I can't wait to start meeting some members and I am confident will come away from this forum with an greater knowledge and appreciation for film.
