Life. Are you Sure You Want to do This?
Sacrifice, low overhead, no stability.
I remember people saying, "Only do this if you have no other choice" and I hated that. Now, decades later, I think I understand what they meant.
Is this worth it?
Disappearing for months
Lack of stability
Lots of time off
You work in the circus
Burnout
2017. The busiest year. I thought I broke myself. (4 seasons of tv and a couple commercials)
Recovery
Find things outside of filmmaking. For me, camping, outdoors, my yard.
Financial
Keep overhead low
Save
