I'm Thetanmancan, video game and movie lover and hopeful game designer and film maker. I am a resident of Boston, Massachusetts and a graduate of The Newman School. I'll be off to college at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, California this August.

The University of Southern California is one of the best and most competetive private research universities in the world. They get grants from people like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg. Every student on campus has access to film equipment (to make student movies, which I plan to do), and they have arguably the best video game degree program in existence, Interactive Enterainment, B.A., which I also got accepted to at USC's School of Cinematic Arts. It's going to be an awesome four years there. I am quite ecstatic.

For companies I'd like to work for when I go into my gaming career, my top five choices would be Free Radical Design, Bungie Studios, Lionhead Studios, Bioware, and Irrational Games, but I would be perfectly happy working for any of the ones on Wikipedia's list of video game developers.

After getting some experience in the field of entertainment, I want to realize my dream of helping to write and direct the Deadpool movie for Marvel Comics. I already have ideas for it, and I'd like to learn about writing and directing at USC so that I can help make it into a truly great film. However, I've seen rumors floating around the internet that David S. Goyer already has plans for the film. The good news is that he's a graduate of the USC School of Cinematic Arts, so perhaps I'll be able to ask him if I can help out with it. That'd be a dream come true. Maybe I'd even be able to make the game.
