C-U Blogfidential

It’s time for the Champaign-Urbana community to give itself a boost in supporting the integration of film and media production into our very fabric of being. That includes teaching the kids that making movies is alright.

Your editor made a movie once. The tragedy is not what happened on screen, but the fact it never made it to any screen at all.

The title of the post pretty much says it all. Don’t worry. We’ll be back like Ahnuld.

With St. Patrick’s Day approaching, you’d think Year 7 would conjure allusions to “luck” and many other positive outpourings. Instead, a whole other litany of four-letter words comes to mind. It’s a good thing your humble editor knows how to edit for general consumption.

From the “Images of the Week” Dept.: With one public display of C-U cinema in the books and another coming up very soon, we recall the 10th anniversary of our original attempt at presenting movies and reveal a failed bid at bonus street cred for our not-ready-for-prime-time efforts.

If Year 6 turns out to be the same as it ever was for C-U Blogfidential, will it be best for the spinning wheels to simply stop turning? This one’s up to you, dearest readers.

William Otto Pankoke, also known as your humble editor’s “Pappy JaPan,” has passed away at age 83.

Year 5 may beget the trial by fire C-U Blogfidential must face in order for its long-term worth to be gauged.

Your editor remembers that personal success often comes in the smallest of packages.
