Things are looking up

Its been a while since my last message. I've been told that this is specifically why no one comes to read what I write. I personally think that it is more likely that they don't read what I write because it is more then a little "BORING". Well it is my cross to bear so I will bear it with gusto! Today I am writting this a renewed individual. Some may or may not knon I am an aspiring camera operator and director. I have always loved the process of creation in the form of video and movies and have even spent an inordinate amount of resources to attempt to get closer to actually becoming directly involved with a larger project. ( I just want to say I made money doing what I love to do . . . but that is always what I try to do . . . now I want to be able to say I did it though.) Recently I was picking up my daughter at her school and randomly started talking to a dad doing the same thing. I was amazed that he was a professional designer and producer. J.D. Buckwell (http://jdbuckwell.com/) Of coarse I couldn't let that go so I decided to take he and his daughter out to dinner and we seemed to hit it off. It has now been 2 weeks since that dinner and he has actually booked me on a documentary project that he has going on! I was totally stocked to say the least. I can finally begin my exit from the extremely boring and oppressive world of legal deposition video and take a new path into the creative and more fuldilling world of production. Well not quite yet but it is definately promising to hear that there could be a way to get to my objective. What is even more amazing is that this person who really hasn't much to go on, when it comes to me, has taken his time to help me get to where I want to be. It really is something when a little trust and curteousy can net a person a whole new outlook on the rest of thier life. PAY IT FORWARD!
