The Blue Fish and the Lion
The Blue Fish and the Lion. Hidden in the hottest part of the Rotem desert there lies an oasis with the deepest and coldest waters to quench the thirst of any passing creature. In that oasis lives a beautiful blue fish who likes to commune with the other creatures who come to seek refuge from the heat. The other creatures would come to drink and keep her company, from time to time they would make her feel happy, but none of them would get in the water with her. There were also long stretches of time when no one would visit, and the little blue fish would feel lonely, wishing there was another to tell her about the outside world.

How Gargoyles Inspired Me
A thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled, and not much has changed if you watch any kind of mainstream media. Back in the 90s, Gargoyles was the pinnacle of Disney TV, especially for shows that didn’t insult the intelligence of children. It had drama, magic awakening in a pre-cyberpunk world, and creatures that were stone by day, but warriors by night. The three main things Gargoyles instilled into me were that your family can be anything, transcending race or even species; more inspiration to study science, technology, and even specifically physics as it pertained to magic (even their magic was semi-based in physics); and in the later part of the second season, like Johnny Quest, it instilled me with a desire to travel the world studying culture and metaphysics.

In the world of My Hero Academia, we are introduced to numerous characters who are striving to become a pro hero. Although 80 percent of the people in this universe have superpowers (called Quirks), only a select few can prove themselves worthy of becoming heroes. Most of the students in the hero schools have an ideal that inspires them. Like Izuku, who has always wished to become like All Might, the Hero no. 1, even though the protagonist is Quirkless, it is his ideal that motivates him to keep pushing forward no matter how far-fetched his goals might seem.

What we can learn from Will and Emma on Glee
I love Glee. I'm not even going to say that it's a guilty pleasure as I quite frankly don't feel guilty in any way shape or form. When it first came out, I was obsessed. Some might have even called me a mega fan. As a theatre kid, I felt like I'd found my people and I felt like I finally had some sort of representation in pop culture media. So naturally, for Halloween, my partner, who also loves Glee, and I decided to dress up as Glee characters. We decided to dress up as Mr Schuester and Emma as my partner admittedly looks like a young Will and I have red hair, so it kinda worked for us. It wasn't until I was in an OP shop looking for a signature yellow frilly top, cardigan and signature short skirt, that I actually started to ponder on the nature of their relationship and soon come to the realisation that to this date, I think they're one of the healthiest and most supportive couples to exist on tv.

Gintama: Why Gintoki is an Enigma
Written by Hideaki Sorachi, Gintama was first published in 2003, and it went on to become a best-selling manga series. It sold more than 50 million copies, and it soon became apparent that an anime adaptation was to follow. However, most fans often complain that anime fail to represent the true essence of the manga series. Surprisingly, in Gintama’s case, the anime did get it right and was praised for it. The show was soon a worldwide success, and fans were captivated by the science fiction twist of the historical anime. There was no turning back; the show went on for a total of 8 seasons and was rated as one of the best of all time.

A Filmmaker's Guide to: The Sublime
In this chapter of ‘the filmmaker’s guide’ we’re actually going to be learning about literature and film together. I understand that many of you are sitting in university during difficult times and finding it increasingly hard to study and I understand that many of you who are not at university or not planning on it are possibly stuck of what to do, need a break or even need to catch up on learning film before you get to the next level. This guide will be brief but will also contain: new vocabulary, concepts and theories, films to watch and we will be exploring something taboo until now in the ‘filmmaker’s guide’ - academia (abyss opens). Each article will explore a different concept of film, philosophy, literature or bibliography/filmography etc. in order to give you something new to learn each time we see each other. You can use some of the words amongst family and friends to sound clever or you can get back to me (email in bio) and tell me how you’re doing. So, strap in and prepare for the filmmaker’s guide to film studies because it is going to be one wild ride.
