I know I'm not in the habit of elaborating on the details of my personal life and what I do for a living, but I was perusing Youtube this evening and I came across something that I simply had to share, because I was very pleasantly surprised to see this myself.
Anyway, during those times when I'm not drawing or playing video games and I actually have to earn a living for myself to support my filthy habits, I do creative media stuff including film and video editing. A little over a year ago I worked on a movie called "Still Waiting", which was a sequel to the movie "Waiting...". I did rough editing and generated the dailies during shooting, and I cut together Andy Milonakis's rap video during the end credits. Once the project was finished I kinda forgot about it. In fact, I never saw the final finished version on DVD. But it came up in conversation the other day and I started looking, and lo and behold I found some links people posted to the rap video!
I know I haven't shared a whole lot of this kind of stuff, but I was really happy to see it, that more than two people in the world actually saw it, and at the risk of sounding like a pretentious jackass I wanted to share it with you, too!

Sorry for the poor quality, but the video actually played in a smaller portion of the screen during the end credits, so the size wasn't very big. Since I have the raw footage I have it in high resolution, but I don't think I'd be allowed to post it for licensing reasons. Also, it is a bit profane (it's an Andy Milonakis video, so you know what he's like), so be warned.

It's as solid as anything professional I've ever read, and there's absolutely no hint of amateurism (is that a word?). Your words and they way they are expressed really tie in well to the theme of this writing - it's plainly obvious that you have a passion for this subject, it shines right through. I can successfully empathize (and sympathize) with the characters, and the in-depth knowledge you seem to have about military matters (such as the way they speak, the weapon descriptions, etc.) really makes this a very well written and matured story. You have a fantastic way with words, and I really enjoyed the solemn, curt way the story is described, and I think speaking in present sense instead of past really adds a sense of urgency to it.
If you are looking to become a writer, I certainly wish you the best of luck, and hope to see it out on shelves soon! You really ought to try and get your stuff published, if you haven't already. I very much doubt I'll be the only one who feels this way.
perhaps i will send this along to my mentor/beta, since she is dragging her feet on the longer chapter i've given her.
cheers!

I'm a very heavy character driven person, and I'm just tickled pink to read something that really explores the feelings in such a situation, the outright honesty. And something about the scenario of your story is a very beautiful environment for it. I think in a way, tragedy brings out something very profound. I don't quite know the word, but it's that feeling that's caught half way between complete elation and heartrending sadness, like the desire to laugh and cry at the same time. Personally, I'm very inclined to take more from a story themed like this.
Again, absolutely wonderful.
also, the camaraderie of soldiers is completely outside normal affections, and that fascinates me.
i also demand solid, relatable characters [that's relatable to me! *selfish*] who drive the story, instead of stumbling along inside it, like sheep! and so often i'm disappointed. so i have to write my own. ;D

And speaking of games into movies... where is METROID?? Gahh... I have been waiting for a Metroid movie for-EVER. Dead Space is barely a year old and already it's got big brother sponsorship. How do you like that. :/
