About Me

I have an AAS in Electronic Media Technology and a Professional Certificate in Animation. I am currently working on obtaining my Bachelor's of Fine Arts in Motion Picture Production at Wright State University. Film, animation, and photography are my loves.

I currently work at Blockbuster, but I also do freelance photography, animation, web design, graphic design, and I sometimes perform with The Pickled Brothers Sideshow . I perform under the name Hannah Bel and I am an escape artist, fire eater, glass-walker, and I'm trying to add contortionist to the list. Also, every once in awhile I pop up in a short film.

I also spend a little too much of my time playing World of Warcraft (Drak'thul server, character Asbestos), The Sims 2, and Team Fortress 2.

Prints of my photography can currently be purchased on DeviantART and my stock photos can be found on Not for Zombies .

Award-winning video from school.

My Interests

Film, Animation, Comics, Photography, Christopher

I'd like to meet:

Creative people, serial killers, mass murderers... you know, the usual average Joe.

Passion is cool, apathy is not.

Music:

The Cure, Voltaire, Bauhaus, Bella Morte, Seraphim Shock, The Missing, The Oddz, Project Pitchfork, And One

Movies:

Natural Born Killers, American History X, Se7en, MirrorMask, Corpse Bride, Fight Club, Pan's Labyrinth

Television:

I generally only watch movie channels, but you might find me watching Star Trek reruns that never get old despite the occassional repeat of storylines through seasons AND series.

Books:

I read a lot. Or at least, I try to read a lot. Often, my busy schedule gets in the way. But I generally read books by the following authors:

Gregory Maguire
Neil Gaiman
Chuck Palahniuk
Douglas Adams

But of course, I read much more than that. Those are just my favorites.

Heroes:

Bubblewrap. If you walk on it, it lets you know it doesn't like it with a POW!

IDIOTS!

I work at Blockbuster. Known fact. It is the bane of my existence with a very fun benefit (free rentals). I just hate that my customers can cause me rage outside of work. I'm not even just talking abo...

Thoughts on Penelope

I'm really slow on getting "reviews" out, but I just had to write a 4-6 page analysis on Hitchcock's Frenzy, so please forgive me. Anyway, I actually don't even like writing reviews. Peopl...

Penis Vagina

Vagina is a better word than penis. If you say, "penis," you will end up sounding gay no matter who you are. It’s just a gay-sounding word. Not to mention very wimpy- no wonder...
