As a counselor I helped couples express to each other what it is that they are feeling; yesterday as a director, I helped a couple that I put together, feel what I was expressing. I really enjoyed the experience; the depth, vulnerability and range of emotion of the actors I chose was remarkable. To perform as they do, they must constantly be growing and learning from all that life throws their way. The experience was a gift, and the actors are a blessing.

This is a time of great activity at BDFI, and we are all feeling it. I do work best under pressure, although at times I get frazzled. The small inconveniences that may arise are to be expected. I remain grateful for this opportunity, and most excited to actually be filming my scene tomorrow! Hope you all have a great week-end!
