Personal Information

Hobbies

Right NOW: my ONE passion in life – amateur movie making!

In the future: who knows!? I was already offered one job at a small Texas movie production house, but had to turn it down due to my current health and social security disability status!!

Hopefully, OTHER than movie making, I will be concentrating on the important things in life: dating, friends, and family!!

I hope to have spending money soon to shoot some billiards/pool, attempt bowling again (assuming I have enough Vicodine to last 3 games!) Camping out at Lake Whitney. Just hanging out with friends and family.

I want to make as many friends as possible again!!!!!!

Comments and Things Worth Noting

Back in 2005 I hurt my back, big time!
4 years, and after one lawyer wasting 3.5 of those years later, I have FINALLY gotten my social security disability case kicked into high gear with a new competent lawyer beside me and the county indigent program providing me with doctors to not only provide evidence in my case, but to TRY to lessen my pain to a manageable level. (Yeah, at last count they have me on 6 or 7 different meds, some of which counter the side effects of other meds!)

Meanwhile, I will finish my latest movie's post-production and plan for summer 2010's HUGE, EPIC production of which I will use everything i've learned thus far to make an AWESOME, under-$300-BUDGET* MOVIE WITH PRODUCTION VALUE, GREAT CHARACTERS, AND A GOOD STORY (with suspense, surprises, twists, arcs, runners, action, romance, ect ect)!!

* Yeah, i'm going to be donating blood plasma to pay for the movie. Now if that's not dedication and passion…

Technical Information

System Details

Currently an antique HP Pavilion 7955. Suitable for SD DV projects.

Early 2010, however, I’ll be upgrading to a monster of a PC! http://www.videoguys.com has a DIY computer setup which I will be expanding on:

i7 3.0 ghz quad-core with 12 GB RAM tri-channel memory, Matrox rt.x2 video accelerator card, G-tech g-speed es pro 3 TB raid-5 video hard drive, and one more 500gb hard drive for AE pre-composes, Sony Vegas 9 pro, and AE cs3.
Yup, THAT’S what I’m getting early 2010! I can’t wait!! I’m actually excited about something for the first time in my life! (Well, that and the fact that I’ll soon have an income to finance a social life and dating again!!)
