Bleed for me and I'll show you the light!

About Me

MUSICIAN, FILM MAKER, LOVER, EVIL GENIUS, FARTMONGER and SO MUCH MORE.
My name is Christian and I'm a 30 year old swedish boy who just happened to end up in Melbourne 2,5 years ago. I am a 3:rd year film student at the Screen promgram at RMIT. I have just finished shooting my 3:rd short. I have worked on about a dozen shorts and I love making movies. I would love to meet likeminded people to team up with and make some sweet insane films. People who love horror, humor and the dark and twisted sides of man and have a burning passion to create. People who want to make films because they love it not just as a job to pay the bills (Not many can). But if you can make money from it that would be wonderful. Horror films is a great passion for me. Zombies, mutants, vampires, maniacs, serial killers and anything in between. I love all kinds of movies from romantic comedies to costume dramas but horror will always be on a different level.
My goal is to be able to write,(Co-)Produce and Direct in the future. I love writing and I love to audition people and see how my characters takes human form. Other things I like is to operate camera and D.O.P/Cinematography though I like to light with my eyes and not using a lightmeter and thats why I like digital... You see what you get straight away because the camera is your lightmeter :P Also I'm pro digital because there are just so many advantages especially if your on a small budget and time restrains. Next year I'm doing the Professional Screenwriting course at RMIT and I really hope it's going to be fun because 2 more years of school does scare me a bit.
Music is another thing I can't live without. I have played music in several different bands since I was 14. I used to play drums but now I sing and play guitar. Havn't had a band for about 3 years and I really want to get back into it and jam.
I have learned a lot about team work and life in general from playing music and making films. Even though they are fairly different processes they are very similar in a lot of ways. You can make great things on your own but if you surround yourself with great hard working people that helps you and push you and are there to bounce ideas with you will enjoy it even more.
Other interests is food and BEER.
I am currently looking for musicians or a band to play some tunes with and maybe have a beer or 3. The songs here are mainly for people looking for a singer to get an understanding of my voice. The are recorded at home on my computer and I haven't put a lot of time and effort in to make them sound perfect so don't judge them too hard.
Also if someone is making a horror film or something interesting I would love to help out.
ROCK ON!!
