That means your doujinshi needs improvement. The Sandbox is one way to go about
it.
If I remember correctly, you used altered/existing photos and images slapped
onto backgrounds, and had frightening drawings of characters with out of
proportion weapon-sized toes and hands and feet. I personally found them to be
rather disturbing.
The drawings may be original in style, but need improvement nonetheless. Hence
the Sandbox message.
I watched this film last week because a friend from high school recommended it
to me, gushing about how very interesting Zeitgeist is, and how it blew him
away. Being bored at work anyway I decided to spare 2 hours, even though my
friend's descriptions of the film made it sound like another sensationalist conspiracy theorist's
wannabe-documentary.
I watched every minute of it. What a sham.
Within the first 2 minutes I knew this was not going to be good. Any decent
documentary will not start out with a vague
meaningless montage, and for a full 7 minutes nonetheless? For such
heavy-weight claims they're about to make, the viewer needs serious hardcore
evidence rather than being prepped for upcoming assertions with a bunch of
emotional captures of war and 9/11 along with random images of space and the
Earth.
Another example of their non-scholarly,
subjective approach: They show the Madrid bombings of 2004 when talking
about the morning of the London bombings of 2005, for "creative expression
and example"; it means they wanted to make a greater emotional impact on the viewer.
The claims in the film are nothing new
(e.g. international bankers nonsense) except I personally haven't heard the
astrology slant about Christianity before. But my understanding is that their
basic astronomy facts are already wrong. I didn't know constellations were not
fixed relative to each other and moved around and lined up only on certain days
of the year. wtf?
And I'm certainly not a conspiracy theory buff, but I've heard the 9/11 stuff
before. I'm also certain that someone doing real research has debunked them
already. So I won't get into that.
Speaking of research, the Sources page was
ludicrous.

red flag. Then I notice that I've never
heard of many of these publishers/publications before...for good reason. For
example, The Book Tree is a publisher
that take it upon themselves to enlighten the public and provide them with
"controversial" material "that would otherwise not be
available", aka stuff no respectable publisher will publish. What kind of
well-researched documentary takes information indiscriminately from dubious sources?
So as I'm sure you can gather, I had a very difficult time taking the film with
any seriousness. My opinion:
Zeitgeist is aimed at the average
ignorant gullible individuals who are not intellectually curious (aka too lazy
to do research on their own and check up on the facts), and people who are
already inclined to believe the film's message.
There is nothing wrong with questioning authority/reality and searching for the
'truth', but it is offensive to attempt to disillusion people with questionable
'facts' put together to make groundless claims that the filmmaker obliquely
asserts as truth.
I'm not sure that many places would be looking for young voice over actors since
21 and older actors can probably do everything that a 17yr old can do. Do you
think of voice acting as a possible career? If you're trying to get the voice
acting job just to make some money while you have time as a teenager, you'll
probably have a hard time getting the job.
Yep, as Spystreak says, it's a phenomenon called 'sleep paralysis'. Quite a few
people find the paralysis is accompanied by visions, some of them freaky. My
high school friend whose house is built on an old graveyard used to get visions
and sleep paralysis often when her body was weak and fatigued.
