When I started my own business three years ago I decided to make it a goal of mine to make a feature as a DP within 5 years. So I have about two years left to make that dream come true but at this point I’m beginning to think that won’t be possible – life just gets in the way when you have to earn a living and have a family to take care of financially. I’m still determined, however – and seriously think I’m getting there.

The hardest part is to find really interesting projects with enough depth and potential for me as a DP to prove what I (think I) can do. Either there’s a super lame story or there’s no money to realize an otherwise great idea. Having no money seriously amputates any aspirations of being able to make a professionally looking piece of work, but on the other hand it’s what requires you to think out of the box and come up with creative ideas on how to get the same production value and be able to portray the story of the script in an interesting manner.

Currently I’m looking for serious film projects – so please let me know if you have an idea and want to share it with me.
