Kinda fitting to get notified about this post the same day the Arizona Cardinals’ Larry Fitzgerald Tweeted this (http://twitter.com/Lfitzgerald11):

“There are those who dream and wish and there are those who dream and work”

Keep workin’ that dream and sharing it with the world, we appreciate it!

I find it fantastic to find those who are so passionate about their art in the film industry. Reading this article was refreshing and uplifting to me. If you absolutey love what you do, the hard work will be so rewarding! Wonderful read!

Biagio, this is exactly what an unknown writer/filmmaker just starting out on this adventure needs to hear! And although its exhausting and frustrating and seems insurmountable at times, I really appreciate the reinforcement for people like me that its all worth it.

And thanks to Travis (via http://www.horrorcrypt.com) for hooking me up with your blog. Love it!

All the best,
Kim

@Cassidy: “Anything worth a shit requires busting your ass” may be truest-truth ever. Well said!

@Travis Kudos to you and everyone chasing that dream. It’s hard. I remember putting in this much work when the only one likely to see the final product, aside from me, was Joke. I applaud all of you who put in the work without the reward…your day will come.

And Travis, there’s nothing like a fat man in a Laker Girl costume to get me to rush back to editing :-) Thanks for the support, and best of luck with your upcoming project.

Biagio,

I know the feeling (the sacrifice of time and sleep and sanity, not quite the millions of people watching…yet) and I commend your hard work. When you don’t have the time, resources, or budget to have others do it for you, you gotta knuckle down and do it yourself.

Let me know if there’s anything I can do (even if its just cheerleading. RAH-RAH CUT THAT SEQUENCE! GOOOOO BIAGIO!)

Now that i’ve scorched the image of a fat man cheering you on like a Laker Girl into your mind, I shall get back to work myself.

-Travis

Sounds very familiar. Keep up the hustle. Anything worth a shit requires busting your ass. Good luck.
