Hi everyone! The topic of this post, as u can see in the title, is about my future job. Right now, I’m a filmmaker student in ICEI in the University of Chile. For this reason, my dream work is to be able to be a participant in the creation of films. During my time in this career I have decided that I don’t want to be a director, but I’m very interested in many other aspects of this: I’m really passionate about screenwriting, photography direction, art direction and editing, so I hope I’ll be able to work in one of these areas. Obviously it would be an outdoor job, since you always have to be in different fields to shoot a movie and for that same reason I would love to travel often, especially to other countries if its posible. Regarding salary, I entered this career knowing that it is a profession where it is a bit (perhaps more than a bit) difficult to get a job and above all: to have a good salary, but as long as I can perform professionally and be rewarded by money, even the ...

Hi! As this post is about a free topic, I decided to do it about the love of my life: My guinea pig, Spaghetti. Spaghetti its a 3 years old abyssinian guinea pig. I adopted him from a rescue foundation (where his name was Loki, I changed it later haha) in early 2020, and since then he’s been my eternal and best companion during this pandemic. I can assure you that adopting him was the best decision I’ve ever made because he is my greatest happiness! Taking care of him is a lot of work to be honest, but it helps me to maintain a daily routine so I’m happy of that too. His daily routine is strict: I serve him pellet for breakfast at 8 am, change his water several times a day, I have to always make sure that he always has hay to eat, serve him vegetables for lunch (at 1pm) and dinner (at 8pm), and I must always be cleaning his cage because he poops a lot. As an extra information I want to tell you: He’s a bell pepper addict! He eats almost every day and if it were up to him he would e...

For many years now I have found myself more and more fascinated by movies that plays with the minds of the viewers, delving into the psychological aspects to create an element of suspense that keeps the audience hooked on the film.  As an example, I will name my favorite directors, who I believe have achieved this in each of their films: Darren Aronofsky (director of “Black Swan” -one of my favorite movies- and others like “Mother!” and “Requiem for a Dream”), Ari Aster (who has made the movies “Hereditary”, “Midsommar” and the disturbing short film “The Strange Thing About the Johnsons”) and last but not least, Michael Haneke (world renowned for his films that deals with social issues, which my favorites are: “Funny Games”, “Benny’s Video” and “71 Fragments”). Thanks to the works of these directors, my greatest desire is to create films that can represent that disturbing aura that all these films contain, which leave the viewer on the edge of their seat due to the audiovisual tr...
