Noam,
I have been a follower since you posted the 04.19.2017 podcast. Back then I thought all I wanted to do was edit, but the podcast you posted got me to thinking that maybe I aught to give some thought to screenwriting and story. I thought I would never be interested in writing because, first I didn't graduate from high school and 2nd, I simply thought I would never be able to write a movie let alone a short of any kind.
Since 2017 I have not only wrote but I also believe I can be a pretty good colorist!!
The aspects of your - Show Don't Tell Podcast - showed me the realm of possibility. It helped me to prove that I could be creative, and that I could think of myself as a filmmaker. Your podcast took the fear out of the technical aspects of filmmaking for me and have been an absolute creative guide for much of what I do presently.
I have imposter syndrome every time I begin doing something creative, but I'm lifted and encourage each time I listen to an episode. So far, in my apple feed I have listened to 263 episodes. If I had gone to film school it's clear that many of the classes I would have taken would not have covered the things you talk about. You have filled gaps in my education and sparked interest in areas that I feared treading.
Noam, I wish you the best in your creative journey. Your success leads to my success and I do intend to pass it on and pay it forward.
Thank you for helping me get over my insecurities and thank you for your constant "Stick to it" attitude. It has been the glue to much of what I create.
All the best Noam
