life as a ceo

Posted on Oct 27, 2009 - 04:40 AM

working as a ceo for damname productions is pretty interestingly awesome.  i’m having fun with it.  it’s so amazing to be in a place where you can create an entire world (small to begin with, granted) and just be able to get what you want, what you’ve been complaining about all your life, and get all those complaints melted away at the birth of this entity, this company.

let me list my most common things that i whine about (that anyone who knows me will happily agree) --

1) women don’t get enough recognition or opportunities in the film industry.
2) deaf women don’t get enough recognition or opportunities to grow in the film industry.
3) i don’t see enough “deaf” films that are strictly as professional as your commonplace studio production, say… “Moulin Rouge” or “Knocked Up” or anything of the sort or that level.
4) i don’t see enough variety in roles for deaf people.  it’s always the same thing-- deaf people who can speak, can really read lips well, and the dialogue is so horrible that it ruins the potential for their natural american sign language.

there’s a lot more that i whine about (and i try to make it happen for myself, at least) but this is the basic gist list of it.

say, did you guys watch dollhouse or fringe on hulu lately?  it’s so awesome!
