Comment:

This man showed me a new way to watch movies, and introduced me to new filmmakers that have revolutionized cinema. Also a stand up guy and a class act. You need to try hard to get on his bad side. One of the friendliest professors I've ever had.

Easy scriptwriting class. He taught you what you needed to know without refering to the textbook. Check with him, you might not even need to buy the textbook.

He was my adviser and really went out of his way to help me get the classes I need, especially since I'm close to graduation. He really helped me out when it was time for advising. Never had him for a teacher though.

Do the work and you'll get the grade you deserve. A friend for life though? Only if you help him without question and do his bidding. If not, your cut off forever.

Love Danny! He puts his heart in his work and expects you to do the same. Not an easy A but worth the effort. You will be glad you put the time in when the work is done. A friend for life.

Imagine my excitement when I discovered there was a class on doing a graphic novel. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered we'd be working on Boyd's own project.

Danny is the best. He knows his stuff. I wish more professor were like him. Life at school would be so much easier. It is always a pleasure to go to his class. Danny has a lot of respect for his students and the students have respect for him. He is just one hell of a nice guy. Keep up the good work, Danny.

Comment:

I learned a lot in this class. A pretty good teacher. He is one of the two professors in this department that actually knows what he is talking about. Only someone that truly doesn't want to learn or someone that thinks they're a know it all won't learn from him.

Comment:

I had Danny for Scriptwriting last semester and he was very helpful in the process of writing my 90 minute script, I wish more of my classes were like that this semester I feel like I'm dying out of boredom in them mostly, but not International Film with Danny this semester he makes it really interesting to watch foreign films with subtitles in them.

Ego driven, self centered, and immature. Simple. Ever seen him in spandex in a wrestling ring? I would never want my kids to learn from this guy.

He's not a bad teacher! Just write the script and he will edit it. As long as you make the corrections and turn in back in...you can get an A! That's not hard!
