In the wake of Sandy, a lot of us have had to rely on neighbors and reach out to the strangers across the hall for the first time. We’ve experienced or read about such amazing stories of positive community collaboration in our city.

“If you say that getting the money is the most important thing, you will spend your life completely wasting your time. You will go on doing things you like doing in order to go on living; that is to go on doing things that you don’t like doing — which is STUPID. Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing, that a long life spent in a miserable way.”
Thank you Alan Watts. Hat tip to Joseph White.

I work professionally as a Producer and Production Manager in the advertising industry and independent film world here in San Francisco. I am also one half of a partnership that has produced three micro budget features here. Rather than become frustrated that the market in San Francisco has demanded that I spread my attention between these three worlds, I’ve embraced this hybrid. This market gives me a way not only to maintain my freedom to usher forward new personally driven works, but it also allows me to produce media through a broad spectrum of strategies, sometimes with vastly different amounts of money. What’s more, in the end these projects are all trying to achieve a similar result.
