Then It Came to Me

Then it came to me that filmmaking is my path to nirvana. Screw the mind-draining preproduction, the energy-dissolving shooting phase and the eye-straining postprod, I love what I’m doing. And I’m happy leading my life this way. I might’ve spend five-digit amounts in exhange for a single three to seven-minute DVD output, but no money can equate the fulfillment of once abstract ideas born in my mind systematically tranforming into moving images immortalizing in front of my very eyes.

And where else but in film school would I be able to help on an enormous lists of production works via my classmates’ own projects! Thanks to Jesse (who has been present on almost everybody else’s projects, thanks for making me as your Assistant Director in your music video), Jedd, Gerry (I became his script supervisor), Jules, Tessa (Yours truly as her scriptwriter) for letting me help on your prods.

On Wednesday is the final judgment day for Film 112. This is my first time to see my creation in the big screen. I am nervously excited and I don’t know what’s at stake two days from now.

Oh my God, before, I am constantly reminding myself that there are at least four more semesters before I call it tops, before I walk up the stage again to receive another diploma. Now, I am excited with all the things that’s waiting for me at UP Film that I realized that grduation is too soon. Of course, I want to graduate in time but I don’t want to think about it now. I am currently enjoying the moments.
