Yeah, it was a different world then. We didn’t really have a lot of that. As I sort of joked earlier, social media is your best friend. I feel like most cities, towns, regions have at least a couple actors, Facebook groups and filmmakers of whatever city you live in group, some kind of monthly mixers or film centers. It’s really just putting yourself out there and finding those pockets of the internet where there are people in your region that want to collaborate. And that’s the biggest thing. If your goal is writing and directing features, don’t think that you’re going to get your shot to do that immediately either. Sort of humble yourself a little bit and go out and help other people. Go be a PA on their set. Go drive and pick up the pizzas for lunch. Whatever they need done because that sort of grunt work on other people’s sets will win you all of the favors and the respect that you need when your time comes and you’re putting your project together. So, I think it’s just about building that collaboration and no fear.
