"I was challenged in ways I hadn't even conceived possible. More than just a filmmaking workshop, I learned how to see the world around me in a new way (both visually and in terms of my own perspective). I have already experienced changes with my approach to creative endeavors. I have overcome my extreme tentativeness and learned to jump into the deep end again (something I seem less inclined to do as I get older). It's swimming in a river with tons of rapids but with instructors as life preservers - so that you don't drown - and the story floats no matter what." - J. Dean
