Get back to school, Tony. It is never too late.
I have my Associate in Arts Degree, and then I attended the AADA for one year, and I took one semester of Italian at the local community college. I could go to the Dodge Film School at Chapman and if I worked hard I could get my Masters of Fine Arts Degree quickly. Then, I could teach acting at a University, or whatever.
But, at the same time, I know enough about acting that I could be an acting teacher right now. The Native American Indians now own their own movie studio in New Mexico and I thought about going and teaching acting to the Indigenous People in New Mexico, to help them to succeed with their studio. Robert Redford is there right now helping the Indigenous Peoples with their studio.
My current plan is to produce or sell my movie script, and publish my poetry book, and then maybe go open my own night club in Rome, Italy, and go from there. Rome has Cinecitta which is the largest studio in Europe. And I want to find a wife. I am thinking that it would be great to find a beautiful young Italian woman about 30 years old and have a baby. Then maybe buy a vineyard and winery in Tuscany and pass it down to future generations, I can make sure that my family is set for generations to come, they will always have an income from selling wine and they will always have a home at the winery.
I bought an Apple Laptop with my Stimulus money in order to publish my poetry book and share my movie script to sell it or produce it, and I need to learn how to use my Apple still and I need to add the right programs to it. I need to go to the film school to get help, but it is close and yet far at the same time. It is too far to go on my beach cruiser, but there is a bus that goes there. I have not been to the film school yet. It is over by Angel Stadium, but I have not been there yet. They have a lot of resources there, they have workshops that are open to the public. Plus, I can act in student films and I can share them on You Tube, etc. It is a great film school, I need to go check it out. And I want to make new friends who I can write with and make films with, etc.
Anyhow, I have thought about going to the film school and getting my MFA, but at the same time I have my movie script already written, and my poetry book is already written, and I would love to turn them into money, and maybe open a night club in Italy, and Rome has Cinecitta where I can put my creative ideas to use.
Thanks for the vote of confidence. I will for sure go to the film school to try to get help to advance to the next level.
Salute,
Tony V.
