Hello folks, Craig Amabello here... Your Truly Demented reporter & X-Hollywood reject blogging in from the Battlefield.
One day I can't get a crack head to spit on me..... & the next, I'm wheeling & dealing with presidential candidates...... Funny how surreal life can be.
Things are just starting to look up for me after so many years of heart break, disaster, ruination & turmoil. When you witness your dreams shattering right before your very eyes... It can be quite hard on the Soul... But the few... The Brave, must plod on... Can not abandon the Sinking ship.
I have had no other choice but to keep pushing on until I've reached the very edge of reason & as Insanity swirls around my head like a truck full of Drunken soldiers on a weekend pass.... Sometimes the Sh*t, really hits the fan!
I am far more than just some Cameraman, Editor, Director.... I have spent so much time in the trenches of Hollywood, that I sometimes forget all that I have learned there.
I have actually put together a nice 90 second Web spot for a presidential candidate that really had no plans... No ideas... No clue as to how to get his message across to the people. And I, helped him pull a rabbit out of his Arse!
What I do for DIRT CHEAP.... Big Advertising agencies get tens of thousands of dollars for. I really have to rethink my title. I am far more than just some dummy with a camera & decades of knowledge. I am a bona fide creator of Propaganda. A manipulator of reality... An Alchemist... A Wizard!
I know how to take a Non event & swirl it up with my magic swizzle stick & turn it into a decent & compelling ad campaign to help launch a mans bid for the president of the Untied States!
Yes, I know.... I sound like an ass & I am completely full of myself... But damn it.... ITS TRUE!
I am getting my confidence back & it shows.... I had a PR guy talking to me yesterday that wants me to work on his full length documentary. I said with absolute confidence.... "No problem, I excel at documentary work".
A few hours ago I received an email from an ER doctor that said that he was very pleased with my shooting on his documentary about life as a doctor. He plans to use me for several more days work before he wraps up shooting & begins editing.
And I have 11 Rock & Roll bands that I have to shoot this Sunday at an all day concert in Mansfield mass known as Locobazooka where Black Sabbath is the headlining act along with Alice Cooper. (my real goal is to get several interviews with Ronnie James Dio & Alice Cooper that I can feature on craigstv).
I am a very diversified camper this week... I love it! So nice to work with such diverse people which helps keep me grounded & very well rounded in my philosophy on dealing with Humans here on planet earth.
Nobody is really all that much different than anybody else... & living this kind of life keeps me on my toes & constantly reminds me of this simple... Yet so often, overlooked fact of life.
The presidential candidate, the Doctor, The Rock & rollers... are all just people who need a little help with their vision. A little outside opinion that gives them that extra edge that they may need to make a success of something. And I am the man to do just that!
Craig Amabello.... The maker of Presidential candidates!.... So damn funny.... I guess you just had to be there.
Hope all you fine Boston folks are having fun... Living life... Enjoying Your Reality.
I know I am for a change.
Hang in there people.... Be kind to your fellow confused humans... & remember,
When the door of life slams shut in your face...... Take that Bazooka outta your pocket & just Blow a hole right through the door & march on in & demand some Respect!
Rock On Keith Richards.
