The author who wrote this, Tim.J.Huff made a interesting life story collection with a christian twist. Bent hope was created by Tim Huffs twenty years of unique work among the homeless and the street involved youth. He lives in toronto and brings a collection of thoughtful narratives.

His style of writing is more visual then a story. He tells you what he did, what he thought in the situation and what God probably did. He grows our thinking and challanges our imagination.



My finished review was more of a decent take in, let me explain. His book is full of inspiration and stories of what he did, but thats all that it is! It's more of a book about his life than it is about jesus's deed. He did a very good job of tying God into the picture but i honestly felt like i was reading more of a diary instead of a bibical story. He had very repetitve or cliche stories going on, as silly as it sounds when you hear the same story over and over and then read the exact same story in this book you pretty much get nothing out of it. Overall it was an interesting story but i'd only reccomend it if you have time to blow and need some inspiration but its otherwise not that great of a book.

Blog 3 - getting there

I currently have a dolly, tripod, decent camera and editing software. Its Basically all i need as of right now to make a AMATURE QUALITY VIDEO. I need some more equipment as of right now for my planned Film, "Ester". Its a story based off the religous problems of addiction. I'm figuring out the visuals but its currently...very twisted. If i get a job soon enough, ill save up my money to buy the whole ester costume, a better camera and ill look into special effects. I'm not going to spoil much about the whole Ester film but my biggest hint towards it is that its a Very twisted christian film. Try to think of anything like that!

I have recently been accepted by a film group to go into training with professionals, my biggest hope is that it works out well and i use this knowledge for the best of i can. I also am uploading a small Project based off the TV show "The Office". It could've looked better but i suppose time was a problem in the forumla but i made it work. It will shown during the poli probs presentations. If i were to rate it on how appropriate it is, it would be probably a strong PG-13 Flick. It's not quite...christian proof but it's weird!

Other than that, i finally had enough information from Paul (the director) and we parted ways. If i ever need him for questions or more info, i'm more than welcome to talk to him.
