After watching my first LFS film, an exasperated older director asked, "who cares?!". My next film went across better. Both responses were right. At LFS, I met some people who made me want to be better; others I wished were better. Around these, I developed greater patience and focus.

Alan Bernstein's classes were the best I've taken. I learned more while at LFS about living than I did filmmaking. It was difficult and often unpleasant but worthwhile.
