Back in the Saddle

It's been ages! Ages since I've posted, and ages since I've entered an editing room. This Wednesday I'm going in... I recently had a motivating chat with my professor from Algonquin, Peter, and he is encouraging to dive back into what I love most; film.

I've been feeling so lost since school ended in May. What do I want to do... More importantly, how will I get there? It's become totally apparent to me that the path I'm on now is not my forever plan: lifeguarding and customer service at a gym. These jobs were never meant to be permanent, however i haven't been making enough of an effort on what should have been my #1 focus up to this point: my career search.

I'm about to get real corny, but tonight at the Golden Globes, Morgan Freeman said that if you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life... Obviously he isn't the original author of this wisdom, but thank you Morgan Freeman for reminding me to aim a little higher!

I am joining SAW Video, I'm rebooting working on a few unfinished projects from last year, and I'm going to look into doing a 24 hour film challenge with some of my peers at the end of this month.

I want to work in the biz, and if I want it as bad as I know want it, I'm going to have to work a heck of a lot harder to reach my goals (and ultimately my potential). It's time to build a portfolio, design my life as I want it.

Let's go!
