I shot my first short film about a decade ago using my dad's phone. With the ability to shoot ten seconds of footage with a fraction of today's resolution of smartphones, I was instantly hooked to the visual storytelling it allowed me to do. Because I did not have access to a 'real' camera or ways to edit the footage, I thrifted into teaching myself 3D animation & Visual Effects which allowed me to bring infinitely large ideas to life. Now with the deep insight what goes into post-production workflows, I am pursuing my first director and screenplay credit.
