      • Quotes
        [his advice for aspiring filmmakers] I should also point out that filmmaking is a collaborating venture. There is a learning curve, yes, but you have to plan for what you don't know and surround yourself with talented people who can fill in the blanks. My cinematographer, editor, composer, sound recordist and supporting producers all proved invaluable in helping realize my vision. I really would not have been able to make the film without them. [2015]
