Lorthos's Interests
|
| General |
Independent Film, Television, action movies, horror movies, comedies, genre movies, dark comedy, screenplays, scriptwriting, producing, directing, editing, martial arts, and sensual gunplay. | | Music | Widely varied and largely scattered, I tend to like individual songs or artists rather than genres. Anything from Mozart to Johnny Cash to Rob Zombie to Coletrain. | | Movies | Far too many to list, I am a veritable movie whore, and proud of it. I like movies that are unabashedly over the top, where stuff blows up and people get naked. The occasional deep plot and inspired acting don't hurt, though... The Crow, Mallrats, Clerks, Dogma, Ghost Dog, Unbreakable, Resevior Dogs, Pulp Fiction, The Toxic Avenger 1 and 4, El Mariachi, Desperado, Once Upon A Time In Mexico, Hard Boiled, Foxy Brown, Kill Bill 1 & 2, Napoleon Dynamite, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, and the list goes on and on... | | Television | I don't get a chance to watch much TV, but I love Adult Swim when I can catch it. Also, John Stewart and Stephen Colbert are geniuses. | | Books | Rebel Without a Crew: Or How a 23-Year-Old Filmmaker With $7,000 Became a Hollywood Player by Robert Rodriguez, Screenwriting for Dummies by Laura Schellhardt, Screenplay : The Foundations of Screenwriting; A step-by-step guide from concept to finished script by Syd Field, Filmmaking for Dummies by Bryan Michael Stoller, Make Your Own Damn Movie!: Secrets of a Renegade Director and All I Need to Know About Filmmaking I Learned from the Toxic Avenger: The Shocking True Story of Troma Studios by Lloyd Kaufman, What They Don't Teach You At Film School : 161 Strategies to Making Your Own Movie No Matter What by Tiara White, If Chins Could Kill : Confessions of a B Movie Actor by Bruce Campbell, The Guerilla Film Makers Movie Blueprint by Chris Jones, Film Directing Shot by Shot: Visualizing from Concept to Screen, by Steven D Katz, and anything by Terry Pratchett. |

Lorthos's Blurbs |
About me:
Producer, Director, Writer, Madman
Owner and primary motivator of Team Lorthos Productions. A man who will point cameras at things for money. Currently at work on the next big cult classic drive-in underground direct-to-video sensation. Also deeply involved in the high-stakes world of public access cable television as a Production Assistant.
I march boldy forth to success!
Or catastrophic failure.

Who I'd like to meet:
People into film and video production, screenwriting, acting... really anything involved with the process of creating art and doing business. Come to think, it would be damn cool to hang out with Kevin Smith or Lloyd Kaufman...
