Hey everyone. My name is Austin. I'm a Communication major with a minor in English. I want to be a director of movies, and I would like to work in animation. I can't draw, so I want to write the stories. This is because I feel that animation is a direct connection to the mind, and the artist is directly connected to the concepts from his/her mind...I mean, you can draw whatever you want. Your mind can imagine whatever it wants. The two go hand in hand in allowing the possibilities to flow and flourish. Animation allows entire universes to be created directly from the artist's hand.
I love this about writing...using words to communicate various ideas and allow your mindset to connect to whoever is willing and able.
I didn't always think this way, though. I loved English, but it wasn't until I had Creative Writing in high school that I fell in love with it. I had a certified hippie chick as my teacher, and she always put us in circles and introduced us to various forms of poetry, story genre, or whatever we wanted. I learned a great deal in that class, and she always critiqued our work honestly, cultivating whatever she saw in us and allowing it to grow. It was an awesome time. ^_^ I look forward to working with all of you and getting better at this medium I love!
My favorite works of writing are To Kill A Mockingbird, The 5 People You Meet In Heaven, and the musical works of Paul Simon, John Denver, and Passenger. (I love a lot more, but those are my favorite.)
