Potential is not overrated, although it’s not enough. I mean, you have to show workings but what I think is most important is grace to discern which working is real because on this street, “OT” gum people.
~ in 2015, I messaged Tunde Kelani about my passion for film making & how I’d love to work with him or even learn from him. After a year & half, he messaged me to have a meeting at his house. When I met him, he told me he saw the message & he’s been following my work secretly & watching me to see how serious I was about film making. That meeting changed a lot in my film making career. We got closer! I interned with him after going to his film school and graduated as one of the best students. I entered where big men could only enter cus I was carrying his bag & learning from him.
Since then, I never look back at SHOOTING SHOT without the fear of hearing NO. I don’t fear NO cus I know who I am and how talented i am.
See, you have to be AGGRESSIVE & SHAMELESS when it comes to achieving some goals in life. Just for it!
There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun
~Psalm 19 1-4
