I was 5 years old when we came to America from Brasil. We had no citizenship, no money and I had a tenuous grasp on the English Language. To make things a little more difficult, my father was addicted to drugs and extremely abusive. So at 5 years old, I learned my most important life lesson. Adapt. "Adapt" won the National Geographic Wild's 2nd annual "Wild to Inspire" competition at the Sun Valley Film Festival in 2015. In partnership with the African Wildlife Foundation, Filipe will travel to Africa and produce another film. *Written, filmed, edited and produced by Filipe DeAndrade Director and Co-Founder of Comfort Theory media company (comforttheory.com) Instagram: @thecomforttheory

One of the best first person videos I've seen in awhile.

Best way to start 2015.

“Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you will finish one story. It is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take awhile. It’s normal to take awhile. You’ve just gotta fight your way through.”

Here is a little something for the holiday season. A good friend of mine grows an awesome beard so we used his growing beard skills to spread some Christmas cheer.
