This podcast is about my journey of creating a feature film from idea to final frame while also working a full-time (non-film-related) job and raising a family while trying to maintain some semblance of balance in my life. This should be fun.
In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, pursuing our passions can often feel like an impossible dream. But what if I told you that it's not only possible but also incredibly rewarding? Welcome to my new podcast, where I invite you to join me on an extraordinary journey – one that blends the artistry of filmmaking with the challenges of maintaining a full-time career and a fulfilling family life.
In this podcast, I peel back the curtain to reveal the raw, unfiltered truth behind this ambitious endeavor. As an aspiring filmmaker, I'm not content with simply dreaming; I'm determined to turn those dreams into reality. But here's the catch – I'm not quitting my day job, and I'm certainly not neglecting our loved ones. Instead, I'm embracing the chaos, the late nights, and the sacrifices, all in the pursuit of my filmmaking passion.
Through candid conversations, insightful interviews, and mostly personal reflections, I'll take you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions – from the exhilarating highs of creative breakthroughs to the gut-wrenching lows of self-doubt and exhaustion. You'll laugh with me, you'll cry with me, and most importantly, you'll learn with me as I navigate the unpredictable terrain of filmmaking while balancing the demands of work and family. Okay, perhaps I'm exaggerating a bit, but I'm going to attempt to be as real as possible throughout. Oh, and did I mention I'll be doing all of this starting with a $0 budget?!
This podcast isn't just about me; it's about you, the dreamers and the doers who dare to defy the odds and chase after what sets their soul on fire. Whether you're an aspiring filmmaker, a dedicated professional, or a loving family member, my story is a testament to the power of perseverance, passion, and unwavering determination.
So, join me on this adventure as I invite you to be a part of my journey. Together, let's shatter the myth that success requires sacrificing one's personal life, and let's prove that with the right mindset and a whole lot of heart, anything is possible. Welcome to Motion Pix Lab's "Behind-the-Scenes: A Journey of Filmmaking, Work, and Family." Let's make magic happen!
