i started an interest in film in my freshman year of college. it was while moving a local filmmaker that i posed my interest in attending traditional film school. he told me to get a computer & a digital camcorder. in 1999 i bought a 1100 dollar jvc camcorder and a 1300 dolalr imac with a firewire port. both are almost obsolete. when i started this all i had was a logitech webcam and emac; now i'm rocking a power mac and canon hv30 (high def) camcorder+wide angle lens. i hope you guys enjoy.
