Gryph's Aerie

Does anyone have contacts within the Vancouver film and TV industry? More specifically, people who work on the technical side of the industry, like crew? I've always wanted to do that sort of thing as a living, but I have very little idea about what sort of schooling is required for it, if any. I eventually want to go to the Vancouver Film School and get a degree from there, but to be honest, I don't have the funds for it at the moment. I'll be graduating from a two-year community college by next summer with an Associates of Arts degree, but I want to know if I need more than that to be able to work in the industry. If you could just send them a link to this post, that would be awesome. I can supply my personal e-mail address as well if they ask for it.

Thanks, everyone, for helping out a film geek and stage techie to try and get on the road to live her dreams!

Would anyone want me to do a podfic of one of their shorter stories for them as a sort of Christmas/holiday gift (shorter as in less than 10,000 words, please. I don't want my voice to give out halfway through)? I'd prefer to do fics under pg-13, please.

I swear my voice isn't horrible; I'll send you a sample if you want. I'll warn you in advance, though: I've never done a podfic before, and if I screw it up, I promise to write you a fic in a fandom of your choice (something that I know, please) in recompense.

So, any takers? *hopeful grin*

Thank you, kensieg, for the christmas card. *hugs*

I had an awesome birthday; thanks for all the well-wishes! ^^

Also, I've broken down and started listening to christmas music. *sigh*

Does anyone know of any good music to listen to while writing? I'm working on my NaNo right now, but need something going in the background, and inevitably I default to either E.S. Posthumus or the REPO! soundtrack. Both of which are good, but there're only so many times I can listen to one song before going crazy. Well, alright, more crazy than I already am.

Note: This is all bitemetechie's and jennytork's faults. ;)





1) Post a list of up to 20 books/movies/anime/TV shows/video games/bands [fannish etc.] that you've had an obsessive fannish love or interest in at some time in your life.

2) Have your f-list guess your favourite character/member from each item.

3) When someone guesses correctly, strikethrough the item and put the name of your favorite character next to it.

If there's an * next to a fandom, it means there are two possible answers.
