well im still in premed but technically i am going to be studying medicine...
my mom would never allow me to major in film or something like that heheh and i dont have any other thing in mind besides medicine coz i was brainwashed ever since to take up medicine. so all i can do now is learn as much as i can by watching films and reading up on books and the internet.

I'm having an audition tomorrow (monday) for the 35mm short I'm shooting this saturday.

It's been an intense pre-production period. Fuji will part sponsor the film, giving a 65% discount on film stock. My DP is truly amazing.

Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

I agree with this, you're a lucky SOB.

Here's my list...

- See more movies.  There are always more.

- Write and edit more, never lose inspiration.

- Film more of what I'm writing.  It almost make me seem like I'm all talk and no walk by just writing, even though I know there are just screenwriters.  The problem is, my visions are pretty specific.

Hey, do any of you actually go to film school? And, if so, how much does it set you guys back?
