I originally purchased this documentary with the hope of using it in my 7th grade art class. We are discussing graffiti and community art. Unfortunately, the title “Bomb It” could be the way the f bombs were dropping left and right. But that’s something you would have to expect when gang members are being interviewed. I found it to be very interesting and informative. It follows the world of graffiti from its start in Philly to places all over the world. The artists that are featured have different styles and stories to tell. Even though I couldn’t show the film to the class, I am still able to impart the history it tells.

Beginning Graffiti Art?
I have taken a deep interest in graffiti or “writing”and yes im young (14 years old) but I’m not another ignorant kid who goes around scribbling on random parts of public property- I’m not into “tagging” I want to learn the proper art of graffitimy problem is like many others…where to start?I have thought of a tag (“WRATH”) which i am fond of. I have been trying to look around for movies and books on graffiti history/styles/ art. But ive only been able to find the legendary documentary: “STYLE WARS”But im guessing looking online for lessons isn’t the best way to go- but it seems Graffiti Art Documentary i don’t have a choice. I doubt i will ever find a mentor where i live (Merrylands, Sydney- Australia) so i just don’t know how to start writing…Answers and any bits of advice is deeply appreciated XDoh and if your just going to talk about how I’m defacing public property i do not mean to be rude but please- save it…i have explained that i don’t want to be another random scribbler….I am beginning to start writing but im still stuck on base 1…thinking of a tag name…I know it should be something that represents ME or tells other people something about my style or what/why i write (graffiti)i started out with “Infamy”…seeing if I’m going spread out around my neighborhood id be “infamous” but i didn’t because it was just too unoriginal”WRATH” was another one (Taking my anger out in revenge in the form of writing…sounds stupid I know..)but I’m not sure if it will cut itso yeah, just your opinion on what i should take into account when thinking of my tag Signature and what I SHOULD or SHOULDN’T includeoh and tag names you can think of or tag names you use (and why) would be helpfulthanks a lot!Oh and I’m not telling you to pick my tag for me…just what I should consider when picking one..
