“First you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the woman” -Scarface I’m feeling nostalgic and grateful. For the first time in two years after starting the pursuit of film making as a career/life; it seems possible to make a living doing it. 6 months ago Liz Landers (and her big heart) invited me to work in the Hollywood South (New Orleans), doing craft service; basically making sure the film crew is hydrated, fed, and happy (check out the giant snowball). Then, to my surprise, it paid union wages... I grew up in Texas where 100 degree days in the oil field are the only real way to make a living. However, It just so turns out that Film Makers work the same hours and get paid the same as rough necks, we just finish the day a little cleaner... After 6 months in Louisiana I returned to Texas flew a drone, made some more great friends, then stopped at my dads to take a week off. For the first time in two years I had enough time and money to stop, not think about work and enjoy the good things in life. What I’m trying to say is that If you have dream which seems possible, then pursue it, work for nothing, make friends, refine your craft, and at some point it will pay you back. Thanks to @ft_journey @ty5tewys.0 and others for the photos, thanks to Josh, Ramsey, Liz, Julie, Charlie Jeff @alexanderbrianmcconduit @kelceycockrell @katelynecurtin and everyone else for your friendship and hard work. I’ll be in New Orleans next week, so let’s make some movies! Much love, and sleep tight! https://www.instagram.com/p/B1pVYpHgZTN/?igshid=17qlj4d18zzmo
