Working for yourself gratification!

I came to a realization this morning that I must stay the course for one reason alone, I deeply am moved by doing pieces that effect and change lives for the positive. I am putting the final touches on a fund raising piece for my kids school and I was moved by the way it spoke to the small parent "focus" group that saw it. I would have not been able to do that before. Certainly with my previous job we did things that were great for the community, but seldom was there the opportunity to do smaller pieces for groups that I was effected by. I need this flexibility in my life as I know that in the long run I need this as a cornerstone of my own personal life. Yes I am getting a bit personal here, but I need to realize that my business is founded on my core beliefs and will follow those.

The dream that I will follow will be to direct not necessarily produce for a non-profit production company. A company to do pieces for non-profits that need a bigger bang, but don't have the bigger bucks. The idea is to work with those that have the bucks to help offset the ones that do not. Keep costs down and make it a training ground for younger visionaries and people that are just getting into the business. A dream, but one to follow.

Okay now out of the ethereal and down to reality:
Friday-Media Mania For Winterfest (The promo piece premiers during this event at a separate location)
Saturday- Cascade Festival of Music
Sunday- Westside Church "Above the Noise"

Next week a quick update on HDV and HD in general.
