An Introduction of Sorts....

I'm usually no good at these sort of things, having to sit down and type a little something about yourself but since it's for the betterment on my education (and yours in you comment on this blog) I'll give it a go!

My name is Chris Swan, I'm 27 years old and living in Melbourne (have for many, many years). This isn't my first time through the University circuit, I originally studied film (Digital Film & Television Production to be precise) but have had a little trouble finding a job in that field so while still struggling with it I figured why not head back to school. I'm in second year at Deakin and the outcome of this study is to hopefully become a high school film and media (or English) teacher, those that can't do teach am I right?

So I guess a little something about myself outside of the academic... I love film. I watch as many movies as I possible can and have written review for www.newshit.com.au in the past and now have my own website where my film school friends and I review films and also have a fortnightly podcast of movie discussion (we're having a little bit of a problem with the domain at the moment but I'll update it here ASAP). I also try to write and produce short films whenever I get the chance and will be producing/co-directing a TV series for Channel 31 later in the year entitled "Kickers" about a group of friends in their mid 20s stuck in a prolonged state adolescence (keep an eye out for it in the new year!).

Hope you enjoy checking out my blog and since I want to try and have a little fun with this I'll end it off with a fun little video made a few years ago while sitting up, listening to records and drinking wine. It's an intimate love triangle between a TIE fighter pilot, a ruthless bounty hunter and a Jawa... enjoy!
 



PS. I figure I should point out the reason this blog is being updated so late into the game is because I have just moved into a new house and have been having trouble getting the internet connected, so apologies in advance for any and all scattered submissions, cheers!
