If you read my profile you know that I never thought I could be a filmmaker; that was until the digital revolution democratized the filmmaking industry. I had never used an actual film based camera and thought since that was the case I might as well forget about pursuing that careeer. However, with the digital storytelling revolution the entertainment industry has been opened up to a whole new source of content.
Now anyone with a camera and a desire to tell a story has the opportunity to be seen and heard. Whether, the content is good or bad the opportunity exists and that is the beauty of the democratization of filmmaking. The viewing public now has a chance to influence what programming they see and what an incredible power that is. If a story exists that is not being told it only takes a single person to pick up a camera, capture it, and display it for all to see. There are so many outlets for content you never know where it could end up. From the internet to film festivals to theaters to cable channels the possibilities are endless.
