Moving On!

It's been a while... sorry about that. My life has been a little crazy since I last wrote.

Since March, I've finished my last remaining college classes, finished my first ever feature-length script, left two jobs at Point Park (being an RE and an Office Assistant), graduated college as Magna Cum Laude (with an overall GPA of 3.8), and officially become an "unemployed college graduate." Oh, and my family moved out of our family home.

So to say I've been busy is almost an understatement. But now I'm back and hopefully we can resume monthly posts about my filmmaking journey, past, present, and future.

My main goal now that I am finished with school (for now) is finding a job. I graduated one month ago and I have yet to find anything. I spent the first week out of school applying to a ton of jobs but since then my job hunt has been pushed to the side with moving. But now that my family is all settled into our new home, it's time for me to throw out all of my excuses and find a job. My goal with finding a job is to find a job that isn't simply being a waitress or a sales associate in a store. Really, I'd love to find a video position in a company where I can continue to practice my editing skills and learn about how video content works in helping a company flourish. But of course, right now isn't the time to be picky.

My second goal is to revise my feature. As I briefly mentioned at the beginning of the post, I did it - I completed my feature and I'm not disgusted with it. In fact, there is a lot about it that I love. So in whatever free time I have, I want to start revising it and hopefully someday raise the money and direct it myself.

If there's time in between all that, my other goals include watching more movies and reading more scripts so that I can continue to learn about the industry, write more scripts and determine what stories I want to tell and what I am good at telling, make another short film so that I can continue making art, and camp of course!

Thanks for reading. Let me know if you have any job hunting or script revising tips!
