Additionally I agree as a filmmaker to enter into the spirit of the festival and strive to put creativity before expensive equipment. My audience are not cattle, they are my equals, intelligent and curious beings, there to be engaged, moved and enlightened. My ultimate goal is to seek and tell a story that has not been truly told, in a way only I can, with the simplest means available.

Hereby I agree to the iSmartFilms Festival
