How does one get into the animation field?
I want to be able to create my own cartoons eventually. I love the unique worlds such as Cowboy Bebop, or Aeon Flux… and I want to know how to get a job like that.


I graduated from art college several years ago. AAC in the bayarea. If you don’t know anyone who’s in animation field, you can try to present your idea and art work to the teachers in art school. Most of teachers in my school are not professional educator but professional artist. Such as most teachers who is teaching animation may from the big film company. Some of them fly from LA to give us class everyweek.
I thought you may start from their if you go some good stuff. But if you really got some great stuff, be careful with who you deal with. We had sign the contract that all our works belong to school when we were. I have known there some teachers keep student’s idea become their own…

Do a course in Animation…. If your drawing is very very good, then you stand a good chance.

If you have the love and obviously talent you can!
Good animation takes countless time and effort.
Be consistant do not drift in to other things in that area
You can professionalize abything if you just keep on keeping on!

Goodluck, animation is good fun work
bringin life to a character is certainlya great feeling of giving birth.

Where in America can i find Dario Argento films?
I have seen Suspiria and would like to see more of his films. Specifically: Deep Red, The Bird with the Crystal Plumage and Opera.


I would suspect Amazon.com would have what you’re looking for, or else just google the name of the film and it should be simple enough from there.

Might I also recommend you try and find Inferno and The Mother Of Tears, they are part 2 and 3 of a trilogy which started with Suspiria, about a coven of 3 witches that settled in 3 different cities

DaveTheOdd | Mar 26, 2009


Ebay! It really is the place to look for anything out of the ordinary – try some Asia Argento films while you’re at it – great work!

Carlito’s Way, the performances are good, Sean Penn and Al Pacino. The story’s much better, it’s deep and intese. I really liked it, i thought the sequel was good, but it didn’t top the original, Jay Hernandez was good in Rise To Power.

TTC, did not work this month, how to keep spirits positive?
We’ve been TTC , and are yet to fall pregnant. After days of thinking I was feeling pregnancy symptoms, I got AF today, and feel absolutely shattered.

Can someone help me find a silver lining, or a brighter side to this?

Not only did AF come today, but she came with a fiery vengeance, as if my body is saying "Haha, you aren’t pregnant, AND I’m going to give you killer cramps for the next 5 days", so it feels like a major smack in the face, and I’m not sure I want to keep TTC when my moods keep stooping this low month after month.

Any ideas to cheer up? Stories? Etc.


Think of it this way, it won’t be much longer until you ovulate again! Keep hope!
C V | Feb 11, 2010


When you find out the answer to this please let me know! I got mine today too. Ive been ttc since march of last year. Im on my second round of clomid and I still havent gotten pregnant. I feel like giving up myself. Its so depressing….
marines wife | Feb 11, 2010


The first thing I always say to people in your boat is OPK’s!!! (ovulation predictor kits). They’re as good as having a sign stamped to your forehead saying "have sex today (and tomorrow, and the next day, just to be sure)"! A coworker told me she got pregnant on her first try using them, and I had already been trying for 7 months charting my cervical mucus each month. I also had very irregular periods, so I bought 50 on ebay and figured I’d just test every day until it said I was ovulating. Well, I happened to ovulate 3 days after they arrived, and it worked:) I now have a beautiful 4 month old baby boy and 47 unused ovulation strips:) I know how frustrating and depressing it can be to get your period each month, but it’ll happen. Just keep pluggin away (literally :o P)
beliz | Feb 11, 2010


Yes, honey keep trying and do not give up! I know it can be frustrating for you but when god feels you are ready you will have a baby. Just know it can and will happen when you least expect to. Baby dust to you and God bless you!

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: Germany in the 1970s: Murderous bomb attacks, the threat of terrorism and the fear of the enemy inside are rocking the very foundations of the yet fragile German democracy. The radicalised children of the Nazi generation lead by Andreas Baader, Ulrike Meinhof and Gudrun Ensslin are fighting a violent war against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American imperialism supported by the German establishment, many of whom have a Nazi past. Their aim is to create a more human society but by employing inhuman means they not only spread terror and bloodshed, they also lose their own humanity. The man who understands them is also their hunter: the head of the German police force Horst Herold. And while he succeeds in his relentless pursuit of the young terrorists, he knows he’s only dealing with the tip of the iceberg.

Finding a location in Berlin?
Hi

Is anybody Local to Berlin; or knows Berlin very well? I am travelling there in a few weeks and need to track a location down.

Ive seen the film "The Baader Meinhof Complex" and would like to see Ulrike Mienhof’s gravestone.
Ive been on Google Maps and tracked the location to:

Heilig-Kreuz-Kirchhof, Mariendorf,
Cemetery, which I believe is North of Tegel Airport.
Ive found U-Bhan stations around the area although they look a distance away. Does anybody know if the cemetery is in realistic walking distance; and how long it would take to walk from the nearest U-Bhan Station?

Also is the cemetery large; is her grave easy to locate. Ive tracked down its in "Zone A"? Does anybody know where that is in the cemetery?

Any help would be much appreciated
BT
UK


In reality Ulrike Meinhof is burried in the city of Stuttgart not in Berlin so you won’t find her gravestone there.
The burial was very controvers at the time the major of Stuttgart defended the right of the terrorists to get a burial place and said that with the dead even terrorists aren’t to be considered as public ennemies anymore

Lookout, The (2007)

IMDB rating: 7.40

Plot: An admired high school hockey player (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) with a bright future foolishly takes a drive in the night with his girl friend and two other friends with his headlights off with devastating results. The former athlete is left with a brain injury that prevents him from remembering many things for extended periods of time. To compensate, he keeps notes in a small notebook to aid him in remembering what he is to do. He also lives with a blind friend (Jeff Daniels) who aids him. Obviously, with the mental incapacitation, he is unable to have meaningful work. Thus he works as a night cleaning man in a bank. It is there he comes under the scrutiny of a gang planning to rob the bank. The leader (Matthew Goode) befriends him and gets him involved with a young woman (Isla Fisher) who further reels him in. After they get close and after reeling him in with his own failures, the bank plan unfolds. Confused but wanting to escape his current existence, he initially goes along with the scheme. After realizing he is being used, he attempts to stop the robbery, which of course immediately goes awry. Bruce McGill and Alberta Watson also co-star as the young man’s parents, who still search for the person that was there before the tragic crash.
