Introduction

Growing up in Michigan for most of my life, going to the movies was and still is my favorite pastime. I grew to become more and more amazed by the storytelling possibilities that film showed me. As I reached college age I decided to explore introductory classes on film history. It was there that I found out that this is the field I want to pursue. Out of the growth of my skills in filmmaking came my love of entrepreneurship. I learned through past short film projects that learning entrepreneurship will help me expand the projects I can do greatly.

In order to meet these goals, I will be required to learn how to organize relevant information for market research in order to develop ideas for promoting video projects in a productive manner. A common advice I have received from more experienced creatives in media production is to have side work to support myself. This is something I already enjoy so I will need to challenge myself to choose my side work wisely so as to avoid burnout. Lastly, I will be required to ground my creative ideas with the focus that will allow for businesses to stand out in a positive way.
