Dreaming A Nightmare

Hey this is a short film I worked on in my screen arts class with my friend Pegah, we both wrote the script, directed it and did the cinematography. We started writing this film in December and we published it about a month ago on youtube. It would mean a lot if you looked at it!

Thank you!

Must read books for people like me!

I am a type of reader that gets bored easily, I can't stand books that use long descriptions and such so my taste in books is different than a lot of peoples. Here are some of my favourite novels:

This book puts forth great lessons about life in general and the ending put me in tears. I think it is a good insight on what teens experience throughout their lives. Its also written in letter form , which keeps me reading it.

Some advice: Read the book before you watch the movie. I watched the movie first and it totally ruined it. Actually don't watch the movie at all, the movie did a poor job at keeping the meaning of the novel in my opinion.

I went through this book in two days. That says a lot about me because I am a very slow reader. I enjoyed every aspect about this book and its setting in an arts school.

I was so impressed by this book, its not a typical teen novel and thats what makes it amazing! Again, I read it in two days! 

Jack the giant slayer review

Jack The Giant Slayer could've been a very bad movie. With this whole fairy tale trend going on in film, fairy tale movies attract all audiences: kids, teens and adults. Surprisingly, Jack The Giant Slayer packs a fresh twist on a fairy tale.

Jack The Giant Slayer tells the story of a boy named Jack who lives in a kingdom. One day he runs into a princess looking for an adventure and a beanstalk grows and takes her away. He must travel up the beanstalk with the kings knights and find the princess.

I think the part of the film that really drew it together was the story of the giants. The story of the giants was told at the beginning, which made the film really easy to understand. It also showed the story being told through two households, Jacks and the princesses. So at a young age, their lives were contrasted and compared to prove that they were not that different.

I also thought the acting was really good. I've never seen Nicholas Hoult in this sort of role before but he pulled it off very well and so did Eleanor Tomlinson, who played the princess. I look forwards to seeing her in future films.

Overall I would actually recommend this movie to any age groups, there is violence but its there to tell the story. Even though I didn't see this movie in 3D, I would recommend for it to be in 3D because I felt that it was meant to be shown in 3D by their utilizing of camera angles. B+
