In high school I wanted to do VFX. Once I learned how difficult it was navigating the industry I became very discouraged. While doing more research on how hard it was to make a career out of the arts, I turned that frustration into a story. In college, I went back to this script and changed the lense from where I viewed the story of how much are you willing to sacrifice for your dreams. I changed it from a straight forward modern one, to a medieval one, taking inspiration from what started my filmmaking dreams, Lord of the Rings.
