In the future my goal is to create meaningful pieces of visual art especially film making and video production. I want to use these pieces of art sculpt viewer’s experiences and awareness. My general philosophy on my future is that everyone dies eventually, my goal is to become immortal through the body of my work. I want to be remembered through the work I have created and the hearts and minds that I have impacted. I want to use my skills in video production to make art that I am proud to call an extension of myself. In the future I want to create worlds through my art that others can observe. I don’t know how my future will unravel, no one truly does, but if I spend my days behind a camera or in an editing bay my life will be well spent. These goals keep me from wasting my life toiling away in a cubicle. The future of each individual is erratic, but through strong-willed persistence we are able to reign in the wild unkempt beast that is our future instead of being trampled by it. If I can invoke any real emotions within even one viewer of my art than I will consider the risks involved in pursuing such a career completely worth it. The goal of any meaningful art is to convey a message or emotion, that is one of the philosophies that I plan to pave my future with. My motivations are not trivial things such as money, fame, and approval. My motivations are to make people feel. People now are so overstimulated by the media I feel the need to create something that I feel is different than all the other films and projects being crafted by independent creators or mindlessly manufacture by corporate studios. I have the intense desire to use my future to create cinema like no one has seen before. It may not be globally successful, but if it fulfills my vision than I will feel justified, but never sated. I do not mean to sound ungrateful when I say I will never be satisfied, but it is true. I will never cease striving for improvement. I would not refer to myself as a perfectionist because nothing that I create in my future will be perfect, but it will be meaningful and that is what I want my future to be.
