le Self-Portrait & Biography
My real name is Travis, currently a student at Indiana University of South Bend. I'm that one person we all know who stays shut indoors, mainly on a computer or working on something. This I am because I'm eager to learn new things, so I'm constantly reading or watching information, a pseudo jack-of-all-trades person and it's very interesting. My greatest and most favorite talents are cooking, rebuilding broken automobiles and electronics, and photography. Another hobby of mine that yet has to really take off is being a movie critic. I have quite a taste for well-made movies and outstanding audio, and the former being the reason most hours of the day I'll have ear buds plugged in and doing school things, auto work, or electrocuting myself.
Out of the 510+ movies I own, the ones I like the most are the Croods, Tron: Legacy, Cars, and most of Jackie Chan flicks. You'll find some of my critiques a tad unorthodox every so often. What I look for in any story (whether it's a play, musical, animation, live action movie, etc) is obviously good acting, accurate casting, character development, plot and its adherance to titles, and my favorite: a great musical score. My favorite score is that of the aforementioned Tron: Legacy, composed entirely by Daft Punk, with the exception of 2 nostalgic 80s songs, a homage to the movie's 1982 prequel. After another couple of years as a New Media Student (minoring in Photography) I plan to launch my film critiques, as it is a time consuming hobby and at the moment college is the priority. Film and photography are very fun because there are practically no rules except those we decent people ought to abide by and must also we wary of copy-written material.
Humans are intensely visual creatures and learners. Photos immortalize the best moments in our lives and video makes the delivery of information (if done right) quick, easy, and enjoyable. I'm fairly decent in both departments and am always striving to get better because I firmly believe there's always room for improvement.
