All about me

My name is Nathaniel Castellanos I was born in Florida but raised mostly in Honduras. The reason why I’m interested in this class is because I needed the credit for Cambridge and because I was curious about studying the different aspects of movies and games. Even since I've movies such as the Live Action Transformers and Revenge of the Mummy, I've always been intrigued by the many camera shots and sounds that they would create/use just for these movies. The Movies I would love to study are the Godzilla films from the 80's and 90's, and The very first two Alien movies created by Ridley Scoot because I grew up with these movies and I've Always wanted to know how they made it happen. My hobbies include playing the piano and the guitar for the last 14 years, and recently picked up drawing/sketching.
