Chances are it was to make the movies you grew up watching.
For me, it was the Matrix. No not the original groundbreaking matrix, it was Matrix Revolutions - the worst one of the trilogy… at the time.
I watched the behind the scenes, and final fight scene over and over until my grandmother threatened she was going to burn the DVD.
But over time, my dream of becoming a film director got flushed away with the reality of making this a business. Starving artist syndrome, paired with all the gatekeepers stoped me from dreaming big.
A year ago all that changed. I stopped Waiting for Hollywood to knock on my Door and started making movies with what ever I had, and who ever wanted to collaborate. Sometimes that was alone, and other times that was with a full crew.
In 365 days I’ve made a feature film, a Batman movie, a 4 part sci-fi web series, a documentary, 5 short films, and a movie shot on my own that gained over 250K views.
I’ve learned there’s no luck in this success, but there are formulas.
In my course the 4 week filmmaker I’m sharing everything I’ve gained from the last 365 days of filmmaking, paired with a decade of being a professional filmmaker into bite sized formulas.
Filmmaking isn’t easy, but it also doesn’t have to be complicated.
The doors to enroll in my course close Friday June 14th. Hit me up if you wanna learn more.
