Download or read book Lights Camera Santa written by Tripp Horner and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tripp Horner likes to refer to himself as a pilgrim poet with a guitar. He’s also a singer, songwriter, storyteller, and in his early days, a wandering balladeer. He loves to write and tell stories to those who will listen and to sing with those who sing along. He loves to tell stories of the legends of folklore and its heroes and heroines of American history. His favorite character of all is, of course, Santa Claus. The story you will be reading is his first, and from it has sprung others. There’s the story titled Bartholomew to the Rescue and Ollie the Yodeling Elf. Others tell about life at the North Pole. In them, you will get to know Miss L. Toe, Rissabelle the Ice Princess, and many others. Folklore and fairytales have been handed down long before the printed word was published. Generation to generation retell and pass along deeds of great men and women throughout history. Every country and every culture has their own stories and legends passed along in this way. Santa Claus is one legendary icon who is known by just about every culture on the planet. He may go by other names, but the person is the same. He may bring gifts to some on other days than Christmas Eve. Long ago, there was a part of the world that considered Santa Claus to be a woman. The one common bond is that the person we know as Santa Claus brings happiness and joy to all the good children and their families throughout the world. There are those who do not believe, and that’s just fine. Nobody has to believe anything if they don’t want to. My stories are for those who do believe. I hope you enjoy what I have written and will look out for the continuing stories to follow. Thank you. One last thing, as for me and my family, we believe in Santa Claus.

Download or read book Lights Camera Action written by Gregory G. Sarno and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Action, action, yet more action. No action film worthy of genre would be caught dead without its fair share of red-hot lead and no-holds-barred fisticuffs, high-octane pursuits and gravity-defying gymnastics. Then again, nonstop action soon wears thin absent a rooting interest in Last Man Standing First Woman to Cross Finish Line. Rooting interest inheres not in overt action, no matter how artfully choreographed or breathtakingly executed. Rather, rooting interest comes from empathy for the protagonist and, more precisely, from the dramatic action embodied by the protagonist's struggle to accomplish a worthy goal opposed by a formidable foe. Action is a double-edged blade, overt action being a necessary but insufficient condition to sustain viewer interest, which soars and ebbs to extent that dramatic action intersects with-injects meaningfulness into-gunplay and fistfest, acrobatics and pyrotechnics. Lights! Camera! Action! spotlights the essential elements of action comedy, action romance, and action adventure. It underscores the crucial distinction between overt and dramatic action, which a screenwriter must weave together in order for an action script to hum and shimmer, pulsate and zing.

Download or read book I Saw Zombies Eating Santa Claus written by S.G. Browne and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just in time for the holidays—a hilarious Christmas novella and sequel to the author’s highly acclaimed Breathers, “a zombie comedy with brains” (Kirkus Reviews). “One of America’s best satiric novelists” (Kirkus Reviews), S. G. Browne seamlessly gift wraps this horrific and hilarious sequel to his “extremely strong” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) zombie novel Breathers. He sees you when you’re sleeping . . . he knows when you’re undead. How does the leader of a failed zombie civil rights movement from California rescue a group of his undead brethren and help a lonely Breather girl as he hides from a band of medical researchers while disguised as Santa Claus? If you’ve never believed in Christmas miracles, then you wouldn’t understand. Andy Warner has just escaped from a zombie research facility in Portland, Oregon, where he’s been subjected to experimental testing for the past year. With Christmas just days away, Andy figures that donning a jolly old St. Nick costume to throw off his would-be captors is just the ticket. But he never expects to encounter a sweet, lonesome nine-year-old girl who not only reminds Andy of the family he’s lost but who thinks he’s the real Santa. He also doesn’t count on being recognized as last year’s national quasi-celebrity by a clandestine group of decaying supporters who look to him for leadership. For the living and the undead, this unforgettable holiday tale will truly put on display just who is gnawing and who is nice. . . .

Book excerpt: Photographic portraits should not be the formal, corporate-style poses of yesteryear, which reveal nothing of the subject's emotion, personality or mood - so believe Sarah Plater and Paul Wilkindon.

This authoritative guide contains clear, concise and jargon-busting text that discusses the essential technical aspects of photography from choosing a camera and equipment to an appreciation of exposure, aperture, metering, shutter speed, depth of field and white balance settings, in addition to how natural light, colour and movement affect a photograph. A guide to posing helps to ensure dynamic and arresting images

Book excerpt: Casey Rickert is in trouble. He's just lost his plane ticket back home to Kansas City in an unfriendly poker game. He has a Lit paper due on a book he's never read, and on top of everything else, even though he took off finals week to go surfing, his cutback still hasn't improved. But Casey's talent for getting into and out of trouble has earned him the nickname "The Wizard," and he views this latest assortment of predicaments merely as opportunities for yet another brilliant recovery. Lately, though, Casey's predilection for trouble seems to be outstripping even his own marvelously cosmic equilibrium. His brother Davy's death almost a year ago upended Casey's world and left him shaken, vulnerable, and hurtling from one disaster to the next. Wandering through Santa Barbara in a desperate attempt to get home, Casey's chance impersonation of Santa Claus opens up to him a hidden world of goodwill toward men, unanswered Christmas wishes, and beard itch. Still wearing the Santa suit, Casey embarks on a journey from Los Angeles to Kansas City, rediscovering kindness, hope, and love from the people he meets along the way. Michael Allin's The Christmas Kid is an inspiring story of redemption.
