CERRADO AL PUBLICO

Hello. Its me ximan. I don't feel like explaining myself, but hopefully there are a few of you older members remaining that remember when I was an active member here a few years ago. Anyway, I'm currently on my road to a directorial career. Here is the latest short I have completed:

Enjoy!

btw the nostalgia of being here is killing me


its been like 4 years


Also please don't delete this thread! I want my old friends to see it.

Its odd but this forum really shaped how I am as a person. Probably within the top 3 influences in my life. I frequented these forums between the ages of 11 and 15, and they completely changed me.

I was a devout Catholic and conservative, and this forum introduced me to a world of thought and information I didn't know existed. Through religious debates on here, I eventually became a liberal. Then an atheist. Now I'm an agnostic.

Its odd to think, but I really wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for these forums. Specifically Sibelsz, Lord Tomyris, Borispavlogrozny (sp?), baron lokimus, rush limbaugh (lol), mehmed ii, and whoever else I'm forgetting.

Hopefully one day I will make it big. I won't forget my beginnings though. It is partly because of you people that I am where I am today.

*wipes tears from face*



If you're interested here are some side projects I've worked on recently:

You're welcome.

Why does the rookie cop have Sergeant's stripes?

What got you into making films?

woah! praetorianguard! everythings going great. im in college right now (hopefully i'll drop out) but have made many useful connections.

maverick- that was the only cop uniform we could get. i started making flash animations in 6th grade (partly inspired by this website) and eventually i got drawn into live action. I've been sucked in ever since.

Hey, Hermes here. I'm another long lost member and close personal friend of ximan. We're still making films. This site was truly great and really my first destination in the internet.

It's ximan sent me the link today - I just finished downloading Empire: Total War and can't wait to play. I guess some things just don't change.

Good to hear dude, best of luck.

haha this is fantastic! I hardly ever come on here anymore but tis great to see Ximan once again.

I have a video which I actually found on my hard drive today entitled 'war club sucks' with Hermes as the front man for Spartan Studios ;-)

Hope all is well mate.
