I may not be new to the site, but took a break from acting due to personal reasons . During quarantine I thought of goals / where I want to head in life and it still led to acting . thought of giving it another shot and see where I can go from here. I also bought a Nikon D 5600 so that I can maybe direct something here and there ( not the best camera , but its a start).
Hope to be more active and to start new connections. Gain knowledge from other pros on the site , and hopefully I do things differently than when I started and to take it more seriously.
Hey, Christopher Pornovets ! Glad to hear you're getting back into the swing of things! Yeah, sometimes that time away is necessary, or just approaching it from a different perspective. This business is not linear like a lot of other careers, so you have to constantly renegotiate what you want and what you're willing to do to accomplish that. Getting behind the camera is definitely a great way to gain that insight, I think!
