Short Films and Documentaries

I have been in love with photography and videography it seems like all my life. The two go hand in hand with my writing. I use them to help me write my books. Whenever I'm writing, I go out and take pictures and videos of the places in a scene so that I can describe them accurately. I also love acting and filmmaking. So, I've decided to try my hand at making short films. I started with making short films that record my response to books I've read. Then I got this great idea for a short film. Now, I have several ideas for shorts that I plan to film over the next year. A few years ago, my husband and I started a television show title This Is Baltimore, Too, in which we did mini documentaries on people doing great things in Baltimore. I'm not sure where this will lead me, but I'm going on this journey because it's fun. I hope you join me. Thanks for watching.
