making movies

[Ezteq]

I have lots of hobbies i guess you'd call them, painting, writing, photography (soon top notch banjo playing hopefully) but lately i've been fiddling about with windows movie maker (some have seen one of my first efforts... poor them) and decided it is a brilliant feature.

Theres a time line thingy that you basically just drop images or sounds in to and it makes a film of them, if like me your in to photography i cant recommend it enough for stringing your pics (or even scan some drawings) together and setting them to an appropriate track, if you dont work too hard at it you can come up with some really cool stuff.

I was just watching my latest creation (abomination?) and wondering if it would be possible to make a movie to sum up the essance of ones self, feelings, kind of like an autobiography in images instead of words. I always wonder what people omit when they describe themselves (and sometimes what they add) either to make themselves seem cooler or more acceptable we all have a tendancy to edit our self. Would you be able to be totally honest?


Why am i posting this? not exactly sure tbh i guess i just thought if i find this interesting maybe some of you will too, what are your views on how people present themselves? and do you think you could be brutally honest to yourself and admit the things that people tend to file away in their minds as "thoughts that couldnt have come from me" some people never admit their own feelings to themselves.

Any hoo if you do decide to have a go i hope you like what you see, im sure you will.

Well one if my hobbies is making movies, has been for years.
As for summing up ones feelings etc. Very few people can do this being completely true. It's hard to admit all your flaws, fears and shortcommings let alone show them too the world. Letting go of your worries about image is something nearly everyone claims they can do. But very few can actually bare their soul and reveal EVERYTHING.

Would you be able to be totally honest?

I'm not sure, like most people, have things i guard very closely. Things that might still hurt now, years and years later. Would i ever be able to let myself go and expose all my secret feelings to a general public. I really don't know.

Would you be able to be totally honest?

Nope, there are things about me I'd hold back because people would want to know how I became who I am if I don't and I don't like to recall all the shit I've gone throu. I am also somewhat scared about certain aspects of my personality.
I've only told less than a hand full of people and the reaction was always pretty much the same: They listen. They don't know what to say. They never bring it up again and act like I never told em.

I made 4 daoc movies so far. Its always fun for yourself to watch what you have created again and again.. This is mostly because i know the sense of humor i have is very different from many other person. So whomever i showed the movies to they liked em ok ( out of curtesy or some really liked em).
My latest movie was a movie of my old clan and i send it too some peeps that were in it and they ofc loved it Other then too show people a I wtfpwn movie i showed them a i WTFSUCK movie

So in that sense i am kind of honest, but on personal level i dont think i would. Not because i am ashamed(well i am ofc bout some stuff) but i dont want everybody to know everything bout me.. As some people are total and utter dicks and would try using stuff against you. And besides that who doesnt want too show themselves off. If not to others then for sure too yourself, because after all you yourself are the RoX

hmm, tough one, i wouldnt 'tell' people everything about me, but if people ask me something i am honest, so if some one was to ask enough of the right questions, then yeah i guess i'd tell some one it all, but i wouldnt just go out of my way to tell people, my past is dark and ebil :<
