    I'm 35 and wasn't going to waste another min not doing what I love. Filmmaking is life!

    I really love this series. I finally took a baby step and bought a video cam. An old dog here trying to learn some new tricks. Jeff’s advice has been great. Don’t be surprised if I reach out someday Jeff. Thx again for truly helpful information.

    Jeff is great! So down to earth! Didn't know he was from Toronto until this video though! Love his interviews with Film Courage as I learn a lot. Congrats on what sounds like an amazing fulfillment of dreams, something a lot of writers and filmmakers here also strive and hope for!

    I strongly believe that money is certainly most imp, but only till the point where you can afford the basic necessities in life. After that, health and fulfillment are the only things that matter. And I'm glad to see another person go that route.

    Aw, it's a sports movie. Feel-good rowing movie of 2004.

    Great video from Jeff as always. Strange that he's not credited on IMDB as the writer of MY BROTHERS KEEPER (2004), not even "story by", just the producer - David Wiechorek is credited as the writer and it doesn't appear to be a pen name for Jeff judging by David's IMDB's credits.

      That is interesting. Will have to look at that.

    This man seems like he would only see himself if he looked into the Mirror of Erised from Harry Potter.
    For those not familiar with Harry Potter, he seems quite comfortable with who he is.

      Perhaps my working a dead end job while I write at night makes me envious of the peace he seems to project.

      @@southlondon86 I have many scripts, but one is actually good enough to show. Most of my scripts, including the one I'm working on now, are low sci-fi or low fantasy, that is to say dramas with a fantastical or sci-fi element.
