Thinking about shooting your own material? Hoping that you can get something ‘decent’ to submit to film festivals and possibly use in your reel?
Well, the one thing you have to do in this business is to be honest with yourself. Don’t shoot something good, something great – shoot something excellent. Shoot something that a completely unbiased person would watch and be compelled to connect with. Don’t shoot something and show it to your mom, dad, sister, best friend, or roommate – you know what the answer is. If you are looking for a simple pat on the back, then you are in the wrong business. Look to shoot something so incredibly moving that anyone watching it will be affected. Now you know you have something incredible.
I just shot with All My Children again, on Wednesday. The episode airs July 22nd and play a paramedic in a hospital scene. If you get a chance-tune in!
Good luck with your efforts. And as always, thanks for reading!
