Artist Spotlight

“Muchas personas renuncian a partes de sí mismas por miedo a cómo serán percibidas.”

“Many people give up parts of themselves out of fear of how they will be perceived.”

“Trust the audience to lean in rather than be overwhelmed.”

“I was 14 when the writing started.”

“Imagination works like a bridge between my inner world and the outside.”

“Belief systems don’t collapse from revelation — they erode through doubt, contradiction, and silence.”

“The key was not playing the villain — Mark truly believes he’s doing nothing wrong”

I wasn’t interested in explaining the world to the audience — only in observing it honestly and letting meaning emerge.

Working on Evil Connection was a challenging yet rewarding experience. Although most of the team didn’t have much experience and we were working with a limited budget, the majority of the crew proved to be true warriors. There were moments of stress, and some team members had to leave in difficult situations, but the core group remained resilient and committed until the very end.

The most important thing I wanted to achieve was to reach people on that childlike level, that level when all dreams are possible and innocence drives creativity. I want people to walk away from this short film thinking they can do anything!

Some advice that I would give to someone aspiring to get into the film industry would be to be ready for a lot of work and a lot of practice. Most people haven’t gotten the practice that I did when I was younger making home movies, so however and whenever you can, go out and practice the areas you are interested in. You can study filmmaking for years, but until you go out and do it yourself, you won’t know how much of a reward and amazing experience it is bringing your imagination to life.
