I've been interested in film for some time now. Its been a weird interest for me in that I grew up in a culture that saw the arts in pop culture as helping to degrade the people that watch and listing to their creations. And I treated the creative spirit within me like a sin doing it but trying to hide it. When I began to follow Jesus Christ I began to have the freedom to choose to create and no longer hid from it. I decided to take at trip to Istanbul, Turkey and study art and photography with a man named Ronald Lopez who ran a studio there. After that part which lasted a few weeks he gave me an oppourtinity to be on a team that was making a movie and take pictures of the production. I met the man making it, I saw the script, it was an interesting script filled with the culture of Turkey. I decided not to do it. How could I pass that up? Right? Instead of doing that I took part in the CBU isp team which was great experience where I met amazing people and eventually went to CBU . I look back and wonder how that would of changed my life. Either way I learned that I dont know where these interests will take me but dont want let them pass by.
I have this big intro for these pictures because they are of short film a student club at UCR is making.
I was at taking pictures for them just as I would of been in Istanbul. Kinda Cool
I had a great time taking photos. I had to remind myself to take pictures because I was so interested in watching the process
of making a Film.
