My Plan

Well, I've decided that I'll try to make general art my main focus right now. However, I'll try to make films on the side 'cause I finally have some concepts in mind. I've finally settled on what to edit video with, and that'll be Blender with Avidemux thrown in. Gimp Animation Package will be used for some things as well

As for music, I'll keep doing that too. After a lot of thinking, I figure that focusing on theory & blues really is the best place to start. I won't be composing my own blues stuff (although I do like that kinda' music), but it is the foundation for other styles so it'll be fun to see the similarities and differences. As for the software side, well I'll learn how to use it after I'm cool with theory; and I've decided on LMMS.

In case anyone's wondering, here are some books I am studying from:

On Directing Film - David Mamet
Writing Realistic Dialogue & Flash Fiction - Harvey Stanbrough
The Art of Creative Writing - Lajos Egri
