I love you somuch, but this is where I am now.This is who I am now.And I need you to let me go. Asmuch as I want to I can't live inyour book anymore.

I respect people that are die-hard film people, but I started on video. I started on Hi8 video and mini-DV, and I made skate videos. So, I love film, and I love the way it looks, but I also love the way crappy video looks, or VHS. I've always been a fan of whatever the look is that's appropriate for what the feeling is.
