It's hard for me to imagine him being an accountant. The performing arts was very big at that time and after, from my experience with that, my mom actually started taking me down to Wilmington, North Carolina. As a kid I was like, wow, this is awesome.
Ever thought about making a movie with just your phone? In this episode of 'Unpause Your Life', Dr. Cali Estes and Master Coach Jenny Fontana chat with Brian Drolet, Jordan Eubanks, and Christopher Livingston, three friends who did just that. Inspired by the spirit of nature and personal hardships, these creative minds took on the challenge of producing a feature film using only an iPhone. No fancy equipment, no big budget—just pure passion and ingenuity.
Brian, originally from Queens, NY, kicked off his acting career in New York theaters and various MTV shows. That's where he met Jordan, a North Carolina native. The two hit it off and eventually teamed up with Chris, an NYU Film School graduate. Together, they ventured into the world of independent filmmaking. Their journey wasn't easy; it was filled with hurdles like financial struggles and the technical limitations of using a smartphone for filmmaking.
Despite these challenges, they found inspiration in the simplest things around them and decided to turn their lives into art. They share stories of their early days, the influence of iconic directors like Steven Spielberg, and how they managed to keep going when the going got tough. This episode isn't just about making movies; it's about resilience, creativity, and the power of friendship. So if you're feeling stuck or doubting your own dreams, tune in.
You'll find yourself motivated by their story of turning limitations into opportunities and creating something beautiful out of almost nothing. Get ready to be inspired by their journey and maybe even spark some creative ideas of your own.
