Hey guys! My name is Mark Kamibaya and I’m a filmmaker/storyteller. I’ve always loved stories but especially those in the form of film. However, I have been writing short stories for as long as I can remember. Glad to join this forum
@mark-kamibaya Hi, I am Ariel. Welcome to SE!
Neat. What genre do you like to write? Can I ask how old you are?

@mark-kamibaya Welcome to Story Embers, Mark! Where do you hail from? I live in the mountainous beauty of Idaho. 🙂 How did you find S.E.? What kinds of writing/filmmaking do you do?

~ Created to create ~@selah-chelyah @ashira I enjoy writing in the genre of “realistic fiction.” It’s fiction that best reflects occurrences of day to day life. However, I enjoy stories in just about any genre. I found Story Embers after I found out that Kingdom Pen shut down or something like that. And jysk I’m from South Carolina and I’m 19 years old. What type of stories do ya’ll write?
@mark-kamibaya A film maker? That’s so cool! Are you working on any major film projects right now?

@mark-kamibaya, cool! I write mostly historical fiction. Do you have any favorite authors?

~ Created to create ~Hi, and welcome… Even though I only joined yesterday. Realistic fiction I don’t know that I have heard that as a genre before but I know exactly what you mean. I write historical fiction because it’s about our past and story and that is such a huge part of who we are. Plus I just love history. Are you going to college for film making???

Hey! I’m Millennium here with my dragon.

Or was here with him.
Anyway, My Favorite genres are Si-Fi and Fantasy. So, you like filmmaking? I’ve put together a few fun things with iMovie, but that’s all.
So, what are your hobbies, fav movies, books, stuff like that?
@the-fledgling-artist @samantha-pen I’m currently studying film at a Christian university so I have a lot of school-related film projects. For one, I’m assistant director for a senior film (the film that decides whether or not a senior can graduate). And I’m shooting a film project on 16mm film (like the not digital kind) in a couple days. It’s pretty exciting stuff.
@selah-chelyah I enjoy historical fiction. Usually in film form, but I’ve read a few historical fiction novels. As far as authors go, the first non-screenwriter author that comes to mind is Ernest Hemingway.@millennium-m I just really like film honestly. I like more grounded, realistic films . . . but I still enjoy fantasy and sci-fi. I did have a sci-fi novel that I was writing in high-school. The second draft was like 500 pages long and could’ve been longer . . . that’s when I realized my talents were better used in film than prose.
@mark-kamibaya I write primarily historical fiction. I love history! Realistic fiction is awesome, too! Have you ever been published?

@mark-kamibaya Wow! So cool! ! I bet that’s a lot of work, but it just sounds so neat!

Welcome, Mark! 😀 Glad to have you! Really neat that you’re into film—my brothers are too, so I know a bit. I actually want to end up being an animator or a video game designer, but for now I’m just sticking to writing. xD What’s your favorite movie?

@h-jones You want to be an animator?? That’s so cool! <3 If you’re serious about animation I know of a couple super helpful tutorials on Youtube for learning how to animate. :3 Both are kind of long, but they helped me quit a bit.
"Though I'm not yet who I will be, I'm no longer who I was."
@the-fledgling-artist Indeed. 🙂 Sadly I don’t have much time to invest in it since there are a whole lotta other things going on, but I would love to hear about the videos! Thank you! 😀

@h-jones Oh that’s too bad. I hope you’re able to find some time for it eventually.
Here are the videos I mentioned.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48pwrr4gPOA (This one is 25 minutes and is a tutorial for animating in a free art program called Krita. 🙂 )"Though I'm not yet who I will be, I'm no longer who I was."
