What are your main responsibilities within your current role?
In general, I'm a filmmaker. Specifically, I'm a producer, writer, and director.
As a director, it's my job to lead a project through its different phases. This includes development, pre-production, production, post-production, and even distribution.
It's really about leading a team of talented people and getting to the finish line. In short, it's about actualizing an idea.
It goes from a concept, which is very fragile, to something concrete that you can share with the world.
