My Self

14 Years ago a tape my first video when I was living in Mexico, my friend Lupe had a rock and roll band, and the first time they play I sneak out the VHS cam recorder from my parents bedroom to take it to the party. My parents never let me mess with electronic equipment by my self, because of my curios nature. I had the tendency of taking things apart to see how they work. One day, while my family was shopping I took apart the washer machine, and couldn't put it back together.

I went to the party and started shooting from different angles and camera movements. I remember my friends making fun of me because they thought I was taking it to seriously. After the party I went back home and started the editing process right away, with two VCR's. That night, I started dreaming about making movies.

Now that I am 28, I still dreaming. There are plenty of factors that have not allowed me to fully express my self, but I don't have anything to complain about. I believe this road that I have walked, has allowed me to experience and learn. I believe I have reach the point of no return, and I am ready to get to the end.
