So I finally did it: I started my L.A. experience blog. Yeah, so it's all a month away, but things are starting to take shape. First, I'll get you up to speed if you're out of the loop. This fall semester, I'll be studying feature film production in Los Angeles, right in the heart of Hollywood. The program is more or less an extension of my studies at Milligan (that is, I'm still a Milligan student: no transfers or withdrawals required). I'll get 16 credit hours taking courses in making movies, writing screenplays, and interning at a production company. Great, right? I won't be doing any on-set stuff in my internship, but I'm hoping to get a good opportunity to meet people and get into the Hollywood pulse, maybe even find some future job prospects. I've been waiting for this semester ever since I discovered the program senior year of high school.
I've started getting information on the program: room listings, travel directions, book lists, etc. I've even got a homework assignment. I'm still anxious to find out where I'll be working, but I won't find that out until I arrive. For now, I'm trying to figure out how the Mini is going to hold all of my things and what Dad and I are going to do on the trek across the USA: visit the Grand Canyon (again)? swing by my birthtown (unlikely: way out of the way)? Anything goes, really. It's whatever we want to do and whatever will help us recuperate from endless driving.
In a months time, it will all begin: my adventures in Hollywoodland!
