One of the biggest hurdles in making your own film on the side is to work a full day, spend quality time with the family, deal with the usual living stuff (ie. food shopping, eating said food, bill paying, unforeseen calamities) and still be able to make your film. Suddenly watching Lost and Desperate Housewives is not so interesting. Here's the thing I realized, that what ever you can do on your project each day is valuable. May it be five minutes or five hours. 5 drawings or 5 feet of film. You are 5 minutes, 5 drawings closer to your goal.
With me it's not so much Lost as Veronica Mars (which I haven't watched now in something like a month, I think). I've been working on my own little project now for something like a year, year and a half with only a little bit of test footage to show. Hm...if Dick Cheney can sell his soul for the (Vice) Presidency, maybe I should look into just leasing mine for a little bit of extra time. Nah...
