Directors: Wow!
Seriously, I think being a director is one of the most underrated jobs in the world, I mean not if you're Chirstopher Nolan or Mr. Spielberg. What I mean is other up and coming producers who do not have a investor base like the two people mentioned above. Producing a movie, documentary, sitcom, etc. requires a lot of brain power.
Documentaries
Can you imagine filming hours and hours of forest? I mean to be the cameraman in one thing, but to look through say 48 hours of film and condense it and make a story like to 48 mins is one amazing feat. Getting lazy bums watching the television to like those 48 mins is very challenging indeed. Now when I watch documentaries I really appreaciate the effort put in creating it. But, now I get in so much detail in analyzing how its made rather than watching the actual documentary. Anyways, I think its one of the most amazing jobs out there a producer for documentaries. They don't always work out you know.
Sitcoms
You have 18-22 mins to tell a funny story though a series of images that are strung together. C'mon! Just watch Seinfeld, it's great, I mean I not as shallow as Family Guy. Another one, South Park, are they not geniuses or what?! Seriously try it out, write a script for a 3 min commercial and see how hard it is.
Movies
Chirstopher Nolan. (No further explanations needed, references: Memento, The Dark Knight, Inception, etc.)
Yeah, damn straight.
Seriously if I had some time I would consider taking film making classes, it seems fun. Even if its another SCTV FTV series, I think I'd learn a lot.

Good morning/night/afternoon/evening!
Hi everyone! I would like to introduce you to Marvels of Coincidence. This is my second blog, after failing miserably on first blog, I promised myself to try again. So here it is.
As I grow older I realize how fragile everything in life is. When looking back at my life, I am constantly stunned at the randomness that entrails my life. I mean seriously, its like a bad movie, all patchy and incoherent. All of a sudden I ended up an unemployed 22 year old. Everything since my birth until now makes no sense at all.
So here's to life, we plan and plan and plan and plan, and in the end we end up with what we get, for better or worse.
I hope that the incoherent series of seemingly random stories may be of use to you.
