funny you should say that, I've been fooling w/ the idea of giving some stand-up a chance at a local comedy club . . . I have some material, but I think I, too would get stage fright . . .
the main thing w/ comedy is knowing where you're going to (try) and perform . . . you have to work the crowd . . . so know about your location . . . practice in front of friends or family, and have them be HONEST . . . really, you'll know if it's funny if you can get a genuine laugh . . .
this may be some moot advice, but I like to sing karaoke, so that's really helped me build a 'stage' presence, by feeling people out in the crowd before I sing . . . I'll try to add something funny between songs, and just being in front of people w/ a mic (while performing to some degree) will help your stage fright . . .
that's a pretty frigid goal, but think of all the things you accomplish just trying to get that far . . .
Sounds like you have a better shot at being one than me. I lose all control of my brain when I get in uncomfortable situations.
But it sounds like you could do it. Just keep telling yourself you are money man!
well . . . that's a hardy goal, there . . . do you draw regularly?
Frazetta is one of my all time faves
if you do draw, I'd say try using subject matter like Frazetta as inspiration to make a drawing or sketch, but try to add your own elements . . . .
if you don't really draw, I'd start!! try starting off with simpler things like cartoon characters, and eventually work your way up to some Frazetta drawings . . . I bet once you started really drawing, and could get to the point where you can draw Frazetta; if you copied 10 Frazetta pieces, you'd start to see some tight skills
Yep, still only tackling the head atm.
Alot of the stuff you learn from books is really simple stuff they should have taught you at high school never mind college, like basic perspective, in the 5 years at high school, they never even try'd to teach you that, or even anatomy, just plumped crap in front of you and told you to draw/paint it.

Yea, his work has a real tangibly to it, same with Ray Harrygausen's fantasy stuff, while cgi stuff used in fantasy/sci has more too it, it's comes off as pretty synthetic in comparison.

haha, at first I was thinking "you want to write the TV weather report
it's a tough market getting into screenwriting, but if you've had such a desire for so long, you should definitely pursue it . . . of course if you don't already live in Cali, you'll pry want to consider relocating there or New York, realistically . . . of course I'd pry also recommend schooling, and practicing the craft as soon as you can . . . start formulating ideas and stuff now, and those obsticles won't catch you offgaurd like they might otherwise
I'm 228 right now. At about 14%. I've got many years of lifting ahead of me
