Why Filmmaking is the Best Hobby an Introvert Can Have

I spent a lot of time in my head this week. Granted, I am, technically, always in my own head, but the mind is a canyon with cavernous depths and crevices that resemble some alien planet, and sometimes my thoughts take me into the deep. That’s what being an extreme introvert can be like. I… Continue reading Why Filmmaking is the Best Hobby an Introvert Can Have

Viva la resolution

I have never really used the concept of a New Year’s resolution for anything more than bad jokes, but this year, I have become motivated to actually do one. Thing is, this one is more substantial, as well as something that people can hold me accountable to. For too long, I’ve let myself remain in… Continue reading Viva la resolution

It should be a simple enough setup for a moderate disaster, now just to wing it from here. So I had… Continue reading Lessons I’ve Learned From Disney

closets full of ideas

The other day I was looking through all of my posts on wordpress– drafts, stuff I published and what not– and it turns out that I actually have been writing pretty regularly. I probably have 15 or so entries that were either finished, or more than 70% written and I’ve just never published them. I’m… Continue reading closets full of ideas

A Filmmaking Pull

Foreword: I started writing this 2-3 months back, got a few paragraphs in, and forgot to finish writing it.. until now! I tried to reconcile my thought processes at the time, though I still kind of know where I was going, just not how I was getting there. In conclusion, I Frankenteined this thing, and… Continue reading A Filmmaking Pull
