Read Joy’s Blog

I’m still having trouble getting hold of The Barn. Hopefully I will make contact with him soon, so he can be my next guest on CRC LIVE RADIO SHOW this Thursday at 7:30pm PST. Thursdays are going to work better than Wednesdays. Lazar will be more available to help. Also, I have decided to do a transcript/book that will share the best of my personal blog. It’s my seventh year and my wife thought it was a good idea. She believes there’s a lot insights and wisdom lurking about in my blog which would work well in a book form. Perhaps I will do this every 7 years just to see how my head has changed. Sort of like the Michael Apted documentary “49 Up” . Hopefully this won’t be a Flowers for Algernon situation.

I dream, therefore I exist.

Back in 85, I walked the streets of Frisco, poetry was my god. Innocent eyes dreaming of the next creative piece. What happened?

MADONNA UNIVERSITY, Livonia
Madonna’s long-planned $21 million Science and Media Center opened in Fall of 2009, just over a year after the film incentives passed, culminating a decade of strategic efforts to substantially elevate its newly named Broadcast and Cinema Arts (BCA) Program. With the addition last year of Adjunct Assistant Professor Christopher Coppola (nephew of Detroit native and director Francis Ford Coppola), Madonna now offers students a plethora of the latest high def and digital technologies in film, TV, radio and internet media, all entirely digital and tape free.

The school’s Project Accessible Hollywood (PAH) Fest, created by Coppola, allows students to learn from professionals in Hollywood and Michigan, and also coach other filmmakers who have a story to tell.

Madonna also started producing its first commercial TV show, partnering with new publication Michigan Movie Magazine to thoroughly cover the state’s burgeoning film industry, producing a 30-episode season. The school already produces Madonna Magazine, which airs on Archdiocese of Detroit and OSTN television networks.

Quote from Chuck Derry, director of BCA program:
“Our students do a lot of hands-on work with equipment typically found in studios and film sets across the country. The business is changing constantly and we want to prepare them to not only work in the current jobs, but, also to easily transition into the new jobs that the state’s growing TV, film, and new media industries will be creating.”

Christopher Coppola interviews Doug Arne about art, life, and coming from the heart.

This podcast is adapted from the live broadcast on Wednesday, December 30th 2009.
