I can't believe that it's after 3:30 AM in the morning (if that isn't redundant enough, and I just finished posting the first group of images, from "The Court Jester.". All images began as "stills" photographed with the digital video camera off the television screen. Then they are "tweaked" as best I can do in Micrografx Picture Publisher. The "photo album" is a Dreamweaver application. One of the reasons I maintain this website is my abounding joy at the wonders available only in my imagination as I put all these programs to work to "create art". My inspiration for creating movie images pages Is Forrest J. Ackerman, the founder of the infamous "Famous Monsters of Filmland" magazine, whose "filmbooks", plot synopses for text, and an abundance of images from the film, introduced me (and a lot of adult males my age) to a great many of the great science fiction and horror films.
The ability to post to the blog program is almost instantaneous. I tried to get on about an hour ago, but couldn't access the program (and started contemplating just buying the professional blogger software.) The dream from the start, for me, in composing computer composites, is to realize anything I imagine, and as I get these wonderful epiphanies by watching movies, and especially now that digital display monitors make it possible for me to experience the films in an almost dreamlike manner unmatched sometimes even by the actual movie theater experience, I want to transpose the feelings and inspiration I get, and hopefully instill in others a likeminded respect for the film medium at it's best. "The Court Jester" certainly qualifies, and I've taken the time to give it "The Image Gallery Treatment."
