The ingenious works of the great classics of world literature evoke the strongest feelings in us. Entire generations of people have been brought up on them. Classics are required for reading at a tender age and for re-reading in any.
But since we all live in a real, real, modern world, it’s still necessary to remove the blinkers. In the era of social networks, authors appeared who write capaciously and interestingly about their daily lives. They do not pretend to be writers, do not threaten the great and the eternal. Not novels and bestsellers come out from under their pen, but wonderful reading for thought or uplifting.
This is a new genre of modernity, keeping up to date. And one of his bright and interesting representatives is Alesya Petrovna Kazantseva. The girl has many fans, however, she also could not do without critics. In any case, her works are appreciated and her writing talent did not go unnoticed. She is undoubtedly a gifted person, a master at writing texts “on the edge”, only slightly touching the reader, leaving a feeling of understatement. She is a true professional who knows how to embody a voluminous episode in several sentences, but with the effect of complete immersion, and her texts evoke a pleasant aftertaste after reading. Alesia Kazantseva is an interesting person who causes a desire to find out details about her life. This article is dedicated to Ales, her creative career and personal life.
Childhood, adolescence, youth
Alesia Petrovna Kazantseva was born in a small town with the name Rubtsovsk. It is located in Western Siberia, 290 km southwest of Barnaul. Alesi Kazantseva's date of birth is February 3, 1980. Soon after its birth, the Kazantsev family, consisting of mom, dad and daughter Alesi, moved to the administrative center of the Altai Territory, the city of Barnaul. The mother of our heroine is a medical worker who worked in the hospital for 25 years, and dad is the driver of a Kamaz truck.
Since the father of the family was addicted to alcohol early, her mother was mainly involved in raising her daughter. Like any Soviet child, Alesya has experience of going to kindergarten, which she did not really like, and soon followed by school. Kazantseva recalls the period of her childhood with warmth and love, not without reason her Bunnies, Bears, Chickens became the heroes of mini-essays.
The girl became a responsible and active schoolgirl, led one of several "stars" of the class. According to the heroine, she “twice gave her heart to Lenin”, becoming an Octobrist and a pioneer, but she couldn’t become a Komsomol member, so the leader did not have to accept the “fiery motor” as a gift for the third time.
After successful completion of school, the girl enters the Altai State University at the Faculty of Journalism. In 1997, Alesya became a student in the regional competition “Young on Young” and received the award “For the bright start of journalistic activity”.
In 1998, at the contest of the youth press “UNIPRESS-98”, the beginning journalist of the newspaper “Sami” A.P. Kazantseva is awarded the diploma "For the imagery and expressiveness of the language." A promising AltSU graduate gets a prestigious job at Altapress, but unexpectedly for all, at the age of 20, the girl leaves her small homeland and goes in search of happiness in the capital in search of the Golden Grail.
LJ Alesi Kazantseva
Having moved to Moscow, Alesya continues his journalistic activities and gets a job in the magazine "Advertising Industry", and since 2002 he opens his blog in LiveJournal under the nickname eprst2000.
For those who are not up to date, LiveJournal or LiveJournal (LJ) provides an opportunity for anyone who wants to keep online diaries or blogs. This is exactly what our heroine took up. Due to her perseverance, determination and, of course, talent, she very quickly becomes a popular author in LiveJournal, presenting her personal thoughts and feelings in an acute ironic form.
The girl at that time worked at the Bazelevs film company, which was engaged in shooting commercials, TV shows and films, so at first her blog consisted mainly of posts about the life of the film industry from the inside, remaining a hit among film workers.
More and more non-filming readers are subscribing to eprst2000, and gradually the blog enters the TOP 10 best LJ. The author of the legendary Beavers is gaining immense popularity, and with it recognition. When asked why the blogger chose such a nickname for herself, she habitually jokes, speaks of a mistake in her youth and claims that she actually loves her unusual name.
In an interview with Menu Magazine in September 2010, Alesya speaks of herself as a very non-communicative and gloomy person and talks about the fact that the LiveJournal blog allows her to fully talk on topics of interest to her.
Since 2007, she is already the second director on the set of films, as well as a freelancer. The girl claims that she never did anything special in order to get into the world of cinema, that a combination of circumstances can be called a fluke. And then he says that this happened to her only through perseverance, ambitiousness and authority. Flirts?
Alesia Kazantseva - filmography and biography
Alesya Petrovna speaks of television production with indescribable enthusiasm and contagious enthusiasm. In her blogs, the filming process does not seem to be a routine and hard labor, but a modern fairy tale. And despite the fact that the girl does not play the first violin here and you can’t see her name on the posters, her love for making movies is indestructible. She is a real workaholic and gets a real buzz from it.
“A real little god” - this is how the famous blogger speaks about herself. The whole organization of the filming process lies on her fragile shoulders, because she is the second director, and this means that she is aware of everything that happens on the set: whom to come in, how much, where and what to rearrange. A lot of work and she loves to work.
So far, the Alesi Film Library is represented by 2 feature films. But this is the case when better is less, but better. The first big picture in which she worked was “Night Watch”. When creating the movie, the girl performed the duties of the 2nd director, and this work turned into a real cinematic story for her, which she repeatedly recalled later. And the second picture - “Fir-trees” of 2014. Ales Kazantseva has a direct relation to the creation of the film, since here she tried herself as a screenwriter and worked on writing the script in collaboration with Anna Matison, Ilya Tsofin, Olga Harina and a number of other talented people.
Call Anton on the phone!
Ales Kazantseva doesn’t put her photos on the Internet in a hurry, but she informed the whole country about her mobile phone number. This happened on the set of "Night Watch" and it was here that the same funny cinematic story happened with the 2nd director of the film.
It was like this: on the set, it was decided to show a close-up of the mobile phone screen in the frame. But for this it was required to enter someone's number into the device. And since it was necessary to do this in a matter of seconds, unsuspecting Alesya offers to use his own. Her number was recorded as the number of Anton Gorodetsky.
A second appearance in the shot of the leader of the domestic rental (at that time) was enough to start strange phone calls from Alesi’s mobile starting January 1 asking him to call Anton to the phone. At first, the girl regularly picked up the phone and asked, “Where is Anton?”, Laughed off: “He is in the gloom”.
Gradually, the intensity of calls was gaining momentum, and Alesi's opponents became more and more disappointed and annoyed that Anton didn’t come back from dusk. The girl decided to keep all incoming SMS for memory, but after an hour the phone reserve was filled to capacity.
Once the unfortunate owner of the phone was even reproached that she was Jeanne Friske. The girl then turned down the phone volume to nothing, then arranged "Open Doors Days" and answered all the callers. In the end, it became difficult for friends and acquaintances to reach the hostess of the device.
It was established experimentally and practically that Anton Gorodetsky was especially fond of Crimeans, residents of Ukraine as a whole, as well as fans from Israel. The Georgians called him on a visit, the Uzbeks confessed their love. And only the inhabitants of the Baltic reacted to the hero with coolness.
Gradually, the hype with calls came to naught and life went on as usual. To date, the number indicated in the frame belongs to one Moscow fashion magazine, because the hostess presented it to the editorial office. Therefore, talking on a cell with Anton Gorodetsky or Konstantin Khabensky will not work. However, as with Alesia Kazantseva herself.
Alesi's personal life
Professional activity gave our heroine a real pleasure. Gradually, personal life also improved. Alesya Kazantseva’s husband, Dmitry, is a film industry worker, he is a production designer who is responsible for the set shooting and also a frequent hero of his wife’s stories on her LiveJournal page. From a boyfriend, he gradually transformed into a legal spouse, while remaining a friend, ally, and loved one.
The wedding of young people took place on November 11, 2011. And although the originally popular author LJ did not plan any marriage, today she values her family very much and is truly happy.
Mom Alesia
Almost a year after the wedding bells rang, the couple had a boy. Stepan Dmitrievich made his parents happy with his birth on October 3, 2012.
In 2017, Styopa will celebrate his 5th birthday. And since dad and mom decided not to be limited to one child, in May 2015, Alesya Kazantseva gave birth to a daughter, Asya.
Since the eprst2000 blogger got kids, she's changed. At first glance, this is still the same person, but updated, as if filled with something else. The young mother, without unnecessary coquetry, describes her current everyday life, filled with constant worries about the younger generation. She talks about how difficult it was for her to realize and accept her motherhood. But now it’s easy to talk about children's surprises and the impossibility of realizing the fact that in this cruel world, children sometimes suffer from the hands of inhuman adults. Let these children not even be their own. “Children are natural enhancers of feelings, ” writes the blogger in her posts today.
Alesi Kazantseva's family
It would seem that the situation with eprst2000 family affairs has been clarified, the girl is in a state of happy marriage and enjoys motherhood. But if you carefully read her posts, it will become clear how close she is with her mother. No matter how sharp attacks in her direction she allows herself, their emotional connection is not just striking, but simply obvious.
Paraphrasing the words of the famous song that the family is “daughter, mother, you and me”, in the case of Alesia, the son and cat Mitya should be added to the listed characters of the song. His photo Ales Kazantseva posts regularly and with pleasure. We can only guess whether there is any hidden meaning in the fact that the pet is the namesake of the husband of our heroine. But there is no doubt that the pet is beloved by the owners. A huge number of publications in LJ Alesi is dedicated to him, everyone can read in them what this family member eats, where he sleeps, how weird, where he goes to the toilet and even what haircut he has.
This, probably, is the essence of a blogger - to leave the door to your life ajar: come in, everyone watching. But what really inspires respect for eprst2000 is its closeness when it comes to her children. You will not see in the photo any even the most innocent mercies associated with them. Although there is no doubt that they are available.
The family in the biography of Alesi Kazantseva is today the most important, most primitive place. She repeatedly admitted that only with the move of her mother to Moscow did this city finally become her home. She seriously and lovingly talks about the special “bird” language of mothers and children, that the participants in the situation “You have not said yet, but I already know what you thought about”, the roles change in different ways over time. Unconditional love, absolute joy and complete hopelessness are fully felt by Alesya, because now she is not only a daughter, but also a mother.
Book
Since Kirill Alekhin interviewed the popular LJ blogger in July 2011, a sufficient amount of time has passed, during which much has changed in the life of every person. Alesya then and today are practically two different people. She contrary to her then convictions, got married and gave birth to children, and does not do her favorite work, but gives herself completely to the family.
There is one more point that was fundamentally unacceptable to her, but became tolerant. He deals with the question of retraining as a writer and the prospects of printing his pearls. Alesia version of 2011 stated its categorical "No." Despite being published on bash.org and quoteka.org, she was not impressed or even annoyed. She claimed that publicity weighs on her, complained about her lack of imagination and her inability to create to order. She refused to release her LJ posts on paper for ethical reasons - “It’s unfair to sell what has already been read.”
To date, the LiveLib site offers its users to familiarize themselves with Alesya Kazantseva’s book “The Life and Amazing Adventures of Alesya Petrovna, told by herself: notes from LJ”. Should such a step be considered as flirting the author with the public or stuffing the price? Perhaps, with age, Alesya Kazantseva revised her priorities and expanded her horizons of beliefs? Be that as it may, lovers of LJ blogger’s creativity can read her diary now in paper form.
Now on Facebook
In 2013, a blogger creates his profile on the social network Facebook. Here her name is Alesya Kazantseva, she has an incredible number of friends and 36 thousand subscribers. With the advent of her social network, her activity in LJ begins to fade away, eventually disappearing. She continues to share with her readers her extraordinary sense of humor and her own opinion on literally everything, from issues of her personal life to events around the world as a whole, but on Facebook. And although her chic photo reports from the shootings and trips are no longer here, communication with her has become closer and gently flowed into a trusting, almost intimate form.
