Intro…dundundundunnnnn

Hey everyone. I finally found time to post an introduction on Hyperspeed Comics.

My name is Pat. It’s very nice to meet you.

Unlike the other two posters, I don’t go to Uarts, I’m not an aspiring artist, and I’m not in my first year of college!

What I can tell you though is that I’m in my fourth year of college at Penn State Brandywine, studying IST (computers and shit yo). While I’m not the most technical person, I do enjoy interacting and working with others, which apparently a void that most IST majors have trouble filling. As for choosing IST, I figured it was just something that I could do well at and had some interest in. I had toyed around with the idea of a more writing-based major, as writing is something else I enjoy, and if I ever get around to looking into it, there is a theater nearby that offers film classes which I would consider taking in my free time, if anything for my own enjoyment.

I’m not sure exactly what Sean and Lily will be posting, probabily about life, art, and dungeons and dragons perhaps? Seeing as my intrests fall in the film and video game spectrum, though recently I think I’m going to get back into reading. I will probably just talk about that stuff.

I became much more interested in movies during my second year of college, and my opinion of them has been in constant fluctuation since then. At first, I tried to argue why most movies are garbage (though some of those movies I was justified in, I believe). Then I started to enjoy movies for different reasons;  like how they are shot or the effectiveness of the scenes. Now, I think I’ve transcended into a person who can look at movies for their merits and come to a rational decision about why I like them, or who would like them. Though to be honest, if a movie really is shitty enough, I have no problems complaining a great deal about it.

I don’t really stick to any one particular genre, but if I had to pick my favorites, I suppose Horror, drama, and comedy are my favorites in that order, and I know those are all extremely broad.

As for video games, I think since I was very young I’ve been a fan of console gaming, and I still continue that to this day. Generally I play RPGs, Actiony-Platformy games, and FPS games. Again, that is broad, but I think it’s fine for the time being. A general overview is all I wanted to give here.

I suppose that is good enough for now. I saw Youth in Revolt earlier, and I did think it was great. I would totally recommend it. I can talk about it in more detail later after I get done watching Daybreakers later. I don’t have high hopes for it, but I’ve been surprised before.

Also, seeing as Sean and Lily both posted some of their art in their posts, I think I should do the same.

Doesn’t the sheer brilliance of it just make you weep? Fear not kids, you don’t need art school to draw at as high a caliber as I do.
