>>Current Project
I am currently producing a posting a 3 Minute Short film everyday. I am doing this in hopes of becoming a better filmmaker. My project is based off of the 10,000 hr rule which states that, "the key to success in any field is, to a large extent, a matter of practicing a specific task for a total of around 10,000 hours". At the end of the first year, I will have logged approximately 5,000 hours.
