    My latest written stuff is at myspace.com/bojo or Livejournal.com/users/danimatian

    I am a graduate of Grand Valley State University's Film/Video program.

    I recently moved to Chicago, IL and I am exploring many new film/video/animation opportunities there. More on this story as it develops!

    Most of what I write will never be filmed or performed live,
    but here's some snippets from my past writings... some are just random thoughts.
    Yes, I've paid the $25 it costs to copyright my stuff, so if you steal it... I'll, like, sue you and stuff.

    This car ride seems eternal with this obnoxious loudmouth. Is this Iowa or the 7th layer of Hell?



    Standing there. Frightened. Drugged. Alone?

    The sea of people overwhelmed him. Heart racing. Then in a flash his heart pounded.

    The choice came

    stay. stay and hurt

    go. go and release it.



    The heat beats against me. I close my eyes and try to remember the feeling of the rain against my skin. I reopen my eyes to the reality of the world and I remember that if I don't find water soon I may get sick. I begin to hallucinate.

    I am running toward the dock. I see my brother in the water exploring the terrain. He rises with a rock of untold wonders. He waves his geological treasure at me and I smile.

    As I reach the end of the dock I feel like I am flying across the water I soar through the air and I feel alive.



    The image on the water stares at me. I look deep in it's eyes until the wind breaks up the reflection I stare at. I will call my new friend reality. Reality knows that she is gone. I cannot accept this now but if I stare long enough I will realize that I am alone.



    We met when I was three. all she wanted that day was a playmateu maybe that's ll she ever wanter. She asked if I would come back tomorrow. She always asked that. Through grade school, high school and even college. Until yesterday.



    I scratch an itch on my nose. The branch keeps hitting me in the face. The signal is given. The hunt is on.

    I power up the digital camera.

    Our unsuspecting victim lets out a "welp." His hand outstretched to protect his face.



    I once looked in her eyes and saw a princess looking back at me. Now that vision has faded. I know the real woman. She is annoying me to no end. She has reached a new level of suck. I find time spent with her a waste. I should find a new hobby.




    SAM Brake lights!

    JIM

    I can see the car in front
    of me, thanks, jerkoff.

    SAM

    Jim, you need to move
    to the left.

    JIM

    I know where we are
    going, okay?

    SAM

    You IDIOT! You're too
    far over now we are
    passing the fist, you
    won't be able to turn left.
    until after the RenCen.







    The car SMASHES into an empty shopping cart as it swerves left.
    JIM Check it out! Beubien.

    SAM

    You are mad,
    we should have died.

    JIM

    It's only a one way if a cop is near.



    HER

    Leave me alone

    HIM

    I can't do that, Cindy.

    HER

    Why don't you just
    drop it?

    HIM

    I need to know.

    HER

    Why? So you can
    harbor ill-feelings?
    Is this some kind
    of demented control
    thing?

    Yes. I fucked him.

    Yes. I liked it..

    Yes, I know he's an asshole.

    You didn't even know me
    then. I would never had met
    you if it weren't for him so
    fucking open your eyes and
    look at me.

    HIM

    Oh my GOD, it's TRUE!

    ANIMATIONS = DANIMATIANS

    Most of you have informed me that I've MISSPELLED Animation in the word Danimatian.

    Allow me to fill you in...

    Animation is what I studied in school. When I animate, I called it the finished product a Danimation. Somewhere along the line I substituted the "o" in animation for an "a." Why did I do this? Because I am Armenian, and most Armenian names end in -ian or -yan. Hence, an Armenianified Animation is an Animatian. An Armenianified Animation by me is a Danimatian. Now you know.

    Ok, so why is this site called www.zoomis.com/~elvis?

    Online since 1993? How can that be?
