Behind the Plot: Finding My Passion

Most of my High school years consisted of trying to find my passion. I tried things like horseback to scrap booking. I didn't feel like a truly loved the hobbies I was participating in. I just knew I wanted to be the best at what I did. I soon became discouraged because I couldn't seem to find something I loved that I wanted to pursue in. I spent a lot of time on YouTube watching WatchMojo videos about things like "Top 10 Most Rewatchable Movies" and "Top 10 Movies That Will Become Classics In The Future". I started making lists of every movie I wanted to watch from these videos and after hours of watching my list was filled with hundreds of movies.

Crossing a movie off my list was a satisfying feeling and all I wanted to do was to open myself up to more. I watched a new film everyday. I loved the fact that a movie could feel so many different emotions and leave me with a new idea. I want to do for others what movies have done for me, inspire. To me, film was always much more than just pictures on a screen. I always felt a new emotional connection to a new film. I started jotting down film ideas I had but I couldn't get to actually creating the film. The most progress I made with one of my films is just writing an introduction. The film opening I create will inspire me to complete the films I start like the Maddy in my films will even with the obstacles that come with being a broke teenage girl. This film is being made in hopes to push me to reach for my dreams.
