During high school, I was taught that one
individual frame can tell the viewer the past and change the ending of a movie.
With this knowledge I eagerly and passionately fell in love with
cinema. During my three years of high
school video production I filmed, edited and produced several small videos for
school, video yearbooks, news reels and created a Senior DVD. During my senior year I was named senior
editor of the video year book . For the
Senior video I created a montage of several videos from every event of the
year. After high school I joined the U.S. Army.
During my year deployment to Afghanistan, I rekindled my love of
movies. Laying on my cot I was able to
create a temporary escape from the daily tasks of an infantrymen in combat.
Being
behind the camera capturing the scene and making sure it is perfect, is what I
am most interested in learning. While at University of North Carolina
Wilmington, I want to perfect the art of the median that is film to help others
create an escape. I would like to work
on a crew and learn the ropes of the industry, then become a director of
photography.
In
ten years, I see myself working in the film industry as a crew member or having
my own production team. I am really
passionate about cinematography and editing. If I have my own production team I
would want to have films in circulation in film festivals and possibly on the
main screens. I would like to make films
that would change the perspective that most audiences have about certain
topics. I believe there is always two
very different ways to tell the same story and I would like to do just
that. If not making films, I would like
to make documentaries. I would want to
get the interviews and tell the stories that others will not or would not do.
Lastly a unique fact about me is I play the
guitar. I have been playing for several
years. I would like to have a collection
of guitars in the future. I believe that
every guitar is different and is amazing in different ways. If anyone reading my blog is looking for a
guitarist for a band please let me know.
