“If you are willing to take no for an answer, make them say “no.” Don’t let silence speak for them.” This is a very proactive statement and is so true of many walks in life. I think it is also easier now to get noticed by being persistently wise, as so many people are using indirect means of communication like emails and messaging. ‘Cold calls’ can be terrifying, but are always the strongest way forward!

Keep the positive aphorisms flowing! To further your point on the potential possibilities of film: the sky is below the limit – cinema evades space and time! Like you say: “bringing life to things that could only once exist as a dream.” Glad to see you enjoy getting a little metaphysical. Frankly, cinema should be labelled the art of metaphysics!

I look forward to keeping my eyes peeled for your film and hearing about your success.
