Amorae’s bio (circa early 2007)
Amorae did not join the class until week two, so she did not do the “bio” assignment from week one. This is her bio from an earlier class, circa spring 2007).
Howdy, my name is Amorae; I’m nineteen and an undergraduate junior in the ATEC program. I like exploring the different ATEC fields but my true interest lies in film.
My interest for film developed in high school when I started filming and producing DVDs for soccer teams. I also started filming school events and teacher’s weddings. So my ideal career would be in the film industry. I’m not quite sure of the exact path because I haven’t really narrowed down my interests yet; I like filming, editing, producing authored DVDs, and my interest in special effects is growing. I’ve always thought that Hollywood is where I wanted to end up but I’m not too sure now. Basically I’m just hoping to explore some different media areas outside of film while I build up some experience. I really want to try to start making my own movies since most of what I’ve done until now hasn’t had a lot to do with film-making. Once I graduate from here I want to go to UNT to study Radio, Television, and Film.
As for traditional media, I occasionally read magazines like Videomaker and Filmaker.
And for new media, both Videomaker and Filmmaker have blogs that I occasionally check out and I regularly utilize Facebook.
