My study programme, (or what i would like to change of my career)

 I found very interesting the assigned topic of blog #5, when I first got to University of Chile, I really didn´t know what to expect from the courses. First year was alright overall, but since third semester I encountered myself with various problems of my study program, there was a lot of courses that were mixed in a really bad way between the semesters and years, so sometimes you got to a class not understanding how to do some things, because the course you needed to practice that, was in a future semester!! Along the years, the school has made some changes, but nothing particular significant.  I also think that in "FILM AND TV" you don´t really study much about TV. But in trade of that ,you got a lot of journalism, kind of sociology, courses, that for us filmmakers, we just found very boring (Sorry journalist students). The other thing is, we don´t really get a lot of resources or funds to do our projects for the most important subject in the career, which is kind of hila...

Time travelling

 If I could travel in time, to any time, I think i would like to travel to the mid 90's in London. I watched a lot of documentaries about the youth lifestyle in europe in that period of time, I really like the music and the rave parties, besides technology was not that far advanced, so people got to hangout outside most, there wasn´t a need to publish where you were at everytime,  people could do things in silence, and even have more fun. Also, i really like the fashion style of those years, and the music bands were in a really good time, britpop was popular, and DJs were kind of different and more talented that nowadays. But, I can't decide really, I would like to travel to the future too, because it scares me a little bit, and I'm curious how it's gonna be for us, living in a less livable world, because of the global warm phenom. I have always liked sci-fi and cyberpunk movies, I like the fake aesthetics of the "new urban world", I guess it's because, is...

My dream job

Hi dear classmates, I must admit it took me  a while to realize what my "dream job" actually was, because I'm really happy with what I'm doing right now. But, truth is i always wanted to be a published photographer.  Photography is one of my  most important hobbies, since I was like 16 years old.  I traveled a lot just for the sake of getting pictures.  I used to took principally landscapes, portraits of my friends, and sport pictures. I have so many memories of my teenage days, behind the camera. But, I know I can't make a living just photographing these type of intimate pictures. So, what I really want to do, is working in a magazine that addresses things like sports, and fashion, and maybe concerts.  For those of you who don't know me, I study film, so photography it's not a field that I actually study professionally, so it's hard to get to work with magazines just like that. I also know that journalism, have classes of photo-journalism, but I never...

My best vacation

 My "best vacation" was'nt really a vacation, it actually was a  regular school week that me and my classmates took to ourselves, to get to go to FICValdivia, (it is a film festival).  So, I was not really in vacations, and i was also filming for a documentary that was the final grade of that year. Thanks to the casualty of life i took a bus to another place before going to Valdivia, to save some money  while filming for my project. I didn't really knew where i was going, but i ended up doing car-stop to  finally get to Conguillio National Park. I was in the LLaima volcano tooking some pictures of the beautiful view, in the snow, while I was surrounded by a large forest of Araucarias. Really beautiful, and breathing was like a whole new experience. So I got down there, then took some other bus to Temuco, and the timing was so perfect, that  even I encountered some old friends from my town, in the terminal station, we talked for like just 5 minutes before i ...

Excercise 1: A country you would like to visit

Hi, welcome to my first's blog post!, my name is Christian, and one country I've always had liked to visit it's Italy . That's because it's a very romantic country in general, his architecture got me amazed since i was a child, and the conjunction of religiosity, art, fashion, and food it's something that really inspires me to learn, about the inside culture of the big cities of the country, but also the rural sides, about the jobs of the citizens, and how living in that raw and beautiful places motivates them to create stuff. If i get to go one day to there (with extra-money ofc), i would certainly try to eat as much as i could, for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Obviously a lot of pizzas and spaghetti, but also i would like to have to taste their wine and coffee, and their olive oil too. After breakfast/lunch, i would have to visit some Italian's tailor workshop, to look the space, take some photos, watch the patience of their work, and stuff like that to g...
