I'm the next Steven Spielberg?

Currently, I am sitting at work, taking this time to write here so I can get a break from doing nothing. Because there is (and has been) nothing to do. I've had maybe three customers since 8 o'clock this morning. Ever since then, it's been intense games of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 on my iPod and reading Gone with The Wind (which, by the way, is a wonderful literary piece). It was like this yesterday. And it will be like this tomorrow. Typically, I would find this very bleak, but today it's fine with me.

My dad just called me about twenty five minutes ago to tell me that a photographer (who's name I cannot remember) saw a video that I just made about a sailing event my family participate in every year (here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAdZTEJ1QME&feature=plcp), and according to this photographer, I am incredibly talented and he wants me to do some editing for him. After watching this particular video, he went on to watch all of mine and contacted my dad's friend, who then contacted my dad, and then my dad called me.

I  do not mean to boast, but I must admit I do have a knack for video editing. Along with photography, hiking, nature, Bones, ice sailing, and traveling, cinematography/ directing is one of my true passions. Everything I do, I always picture in "movie-vision" as I call it. I am constantly thinking of how things would look through a lens and how different angles and shots could convey a particular message. I have a vision of how a video should be planned out in my head before I even touch a camera. I get random ideas all the time based on whatever it is I'm doing at the time.  I know how I want it to feel and how I want it to look. So for me, this is a very amazing opportunity. Who knows, it may lead to my ultimate dream of working for National Geographic filming astounding documentaries about nature and then making a movie about my own epic adventures in the great outdoors.
