AFTER SPENDING 6 YEARS IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA, WORKING IN SILICON VALLEY FOR OVER 200 COMPANIES, (I earned 100 credits towards undergraduate degree in film/theatre and completed a 5 year internship with local origination Bay Area San Francisco television. I worked as a part of several award winning television programs FOR PRACTICE to work in the movies, gain experience, and apply knowledge into practice. Sometimes we would work at the television studio until 1am in the morning. In the end, it paid off by breaking me away from any fear or discouragement that I might have once had about becoming successful in the movies) I AM NOW LOOKING FORWARD TO THE BEST CAREER I COULD POSSIBLY ASK FOR BY WORKING AS A FILM ACTRESS AND BEING CAST IN MY (THE DIRECTOR'S) FIRST MAJOR MOTION PICTURE.
such as Oliver Stone and Alan Parker, OVER 20 YEARS AGO.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN, YOU ASK?
ONE DROP OF BLOOD
AND SUDDENLY EVERYONE IN THE WORLD,
WILL BE WORRIED ABOUT
(AND GREATLY PLEASED WITH)
YOUR MOVIE.
IT'S YOUR MOVIE. I UNDERSTAND.
AND THIS IS PROOF.
By watching movies, we experience different thoughts and emotions.
We are taught new lessons and greater ways to help, to hurt, and to heal each other.
MY JOB DEPENDS ON THE WORK OF OTHERS: WRITERS, DIRECTORS, PRODUCERS and everyone else who BELIEVES they have authority over God. My job includes waiting for them to do theirs. That is one of the reasons I drive a Taxi. To be good representation of everyone else's work.
These new thoughts and feelings that are provoked within us (BECAUSE WE LEARN) by watching informational and/or educational programming, may cause us to react in such ways as to cause us to cry, to laugh, to be scared, to feel happy, or, on a greater level--we may be provoked to care, to think, and/or become proactive--in giving back to the community and in helping others, to become more aware of greater levels of consciousness and/or greater levels of the human intellect.
WHY?
FOR A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF EACH OTHER
(so that more may be accomplished in less time,
for a more productive society--one
where we make better and more efficient use, of our planets energy and resources),
so that less pain may be endured in the future, for all of us.
