I have no idea why people are gaga for Final Cut, I rather spend that money on a better camera then a mac and final cut.

Good luck with your projects. I'd recommend you check out Columbia. Have you had a campus visit?

Thanks for the add! How're things out in Batavia? Several years ago I taught a class at a school out there.

http://chicago2016channel.com/contests/

We want to know why YOU think Chicago will make the BEST host for the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games since, oh, let’s say, Athens! We invite you to create videos that unite the spirit of the Olympics with the spirit of Chicago — and tell the world why the 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games should come to Chicago. As a city renowned for its passion, civic pride, love of sports, and great sense of humor, we know that no one can tell our story better than our own people! We’ll post them on this Web site for the world to see.

What we’re looking for:

* Tell the story of what makes Chicago the perfect place to host the 2016 Olympic and Paralymic Games. Imagine someone from another country watching your video. What is it about Chicago, and your experience with the city and its people, that will make the world excited about coming to Chicago in 2016?

* Show the character of Chicago and its people to the world, in whichever way you like – through fun conversations with Chicagoans, city scenes, narrated, edited, raw footage – you name it! Just no nudity, swearing, or bashing of any country or ethnic culture in any way – please!

* Keep it short - no more than 1 minute (60 seconds).

Watch some of our videos here.
Find out more about Chicago’s Bid to Host the 2016 Olympics and Paralymic Games and how you can help!

How to Submit:

* Enter required information on this page – it’s quick and painless.

* We prefer you post your video to YouTube, because then we can make it part of our Chicago 2016 YouTube Channel, too.

Once you submit your video, our editors will review your clip. If everything looks OK, we will embed it and publish it on our site. It may take a day or two to get published, so please be patient.

If you have any questions, please contact us at: http://chicago2016channel.com/contests/

About Me:

I'm a multimedia artist from Batavia, IL. I'm also a Marine Corps veteran pursuing my BA from Northern Illinois possibly thinking about going for my Masters next. I enjoy awkward comedy and art exhibits. My plan is to have my own art exhibit in Chicago exploring my ideas of narrative and animation.

I also enjoy building PC's not a fan of over clocking, I don't care to spend money on it
