“All the time I literally had a passion for filmmaking even though I never did anything about making films. As a little kid, like all of us, we grow up thinking movies are magic. All the time in the back of my little head saying, “Someday I really wanna be a filmmaker.” To make an even longer story short, I never went to film school, so obviously I read filmmaking books and tried to do as much homework as I could. I never really made experimental films or shorts. Eventually, one day, and because I was not in the Los Angeles filmmaking, networking loop, I had virtually no friends in filmmaking. They’re all in other aspects of professional life. Bottom line is, I was intentionally saving the money I made as an architect to fund my film.”
