A Simple Montage for my Younger Brother's Youtube Channel

My two younger brothers have a youtube channel, The Byerz Bros, which is home to many simple videos which demonstrate charming action sequences and sketches. I have contributed to some in production, filming, and acting, and recently I edited this simple video of my fellow college students and I sledding and falling to the music of The Blue Danube.

Orichalcum (Jun 4) - Writing Schematics

The following document is a personal collection of Writing Advice and mechanics that I have collected from years of trying to understand how storytellers mechanically craft stories. For personal use, I have removed written citations, to condense the full document; I have added links in leu of written citation. For example, the first advice ' Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted. ' includes a link that reveals that it is one of the lessons of Kurt Vonnegut. Any advice that is without a link is a personal supposition. I do not mis-credit anything in this document. Last Updated June 4, 2015 Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted. HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY - 'How does it feel to be those guys ' . The effective use of silence... In music and everything else. Character Building: You admire a character for trying more than for their suc...

The Island Where the Nazis Won (In Praise of The Act of Killing)

The Island Where the Nazis Won By Cameron Byerly Published in St. John's College  The Gadfly , December 21st, 2015 The Act of Killing is the most brilliant documentary I have seen in my entire life. It has no close second. It also happens to be the most nauseating experience I have forced myself to sit through since its release in 2012. It is painfully difficult to watch. I add this as a warning, because despite a deep sense of guilt with recommending it, I have been desperate since my first viewing to convince as many people to watch it as I can. Allow me to explain. In 1965, the Indonesian government was overthrown by the military. Anybody opposed to the military dictatorship could be accused of being a communist: union members, landless farmers, and the ethnically Chinese.

Chess with Lucifer : Iambic Poem

Chess with Lucifer By Cameron Byerly Published in St. John College's The Gadfly January 12th, 2016 Part I Your God and I sat Somewhere Else , and played a game of Chess, Beneath our pieces, gently pushed, Earth groaned with man’s new stress. We watched and planned for Times to Come , And learned of Deathless Laws . We pondered deep, we spoke and wrote, And presently, took pause. “Oh King of Pain, foul Lucifer,” he called me such, in jest. “This game of ours, again, is doom’d, Man falls just as the rest.” “In all our play, the pieces rise, And mine the board beneath, Their nest, on which their lives rely, Shall spoil ‘tween their teeth.” “Same Will that rose them ‘bove the Beasts, Such pluck as we admire. Is too entrench'd to cease in time, They’re doomed in their desire.” “Agreed I am, oh Lord of Light!” I called him such, to mock. “Might I suggest new spectacle? We crave some novel shock.” “In lieu of this re...
