The Freak Chronicles

I attended the Ryerson training session yesterday evening. Film and Sound Editing are only in class labs mainly and do not seem that difficult from what I have heard. In the Winter term of 2009 I shall be taking Film Technology 2. The comedic elements of my teen dramedy graphic novel has become very similar to that of Knocked Up, Superbad, and Pineapple Express. The comedic humour writers that I have been influenced by most are Seth Rogen and Judd Apatow. They never seem to amaze me yet all there films have definite heart and are lovely in a distinct crude style. I have created the main love triangle in the graphic novel by chapter six, halfway through the graphic novel and thus begins the major conflict. I have been planning my 21st birthday party with Ryan, Robin and Geoff.We are going to transform my house into an Animal House!!!…HAHA! JOKES! It will most likely be on the weekend of October 4th. Its not set in stone though…it shall quite soon.

School begins in only a few weeks for me now. The art course at Max the Mutt was extremely interesting and very helpful in developing my drawing skills. This autumn I am taking Film and Sound Editing at Ryerson. I am planning to take another workshop at Max the Mutt beginning in October called Comic Book Boot Camp. However I did not go to the SDCC after all this summer. I have volunteered for the film festival in Toronto for a second time. I am hoping to meet Dakota Fanning at the Film Festival if I can. The Toronto Film Fest begins on September 4th and I have nine shifts throughout the time that the film fest lasts. I mostly will be working at the Ryerson theatre.  I am halfway through my next major graphic novel thankfully as well!  Out of all the films I have seen this summer I would have to say The Dark Knight is truly my favourite and the best through my eyes. I have seen The Dark Knight six times in theatres including once in IMAX. I find it to be an absolute masterpiece and it definitely lived up to the incredible hype. Heath Ledger honestly deserves an Oscar for his performance as the Joker. His performance was enthralling.  And I thought SM3 was amazing!!!! That is a joke! The Dark Knight is one of the greatest action films ever made and without a doubt the best comic book movie ever made. Question is what happens next? October is slowly approaching and on that note so is my birthday. I hope to have a fabulous party to celebrate my 21st. It shall be in early October. I am designing a Joker TDK costume for Halloween and transforming my house into little vignette scenes from The Dark Knight. In Nolan we trusted and he brought us a dazzling film. I applaud him for that.
