>> I think one of the real advantages of the age that we are
in from a media production standpoint is that we are at a point where you can get your hands
on the necessary equipment for not a lot of money and it's really an era that is open
to inde-filmmakers in a way that it ever has been before.
We have new distribution platforms that are emerging and I think
over the next decade are going to become just as important as theater is
and television and a lot more accessible.
So I think the most important thing to do is get a camera, is to get out there, is to do thing
and not to limit yourself necessarily
to one very specific avenue or one very specific skill set.
If that's something you want to do, if what you want
to do is lighting then you really should focus in on that but I think for the kind of work
that I'm doing specifically it's more important to get out there in the field and experience all
of the different things that are coming at you and learn how to manage it
on an individual level and learn how to work with the resources that are available for you.
Whatever interests you, whatever you think might be something you could do find out how to do it.
We are definitely in a world where if you're interested there's ways to learn.
