"That directing statue was just such a kick. I was really in the novice camp, and it was invaluable feedback. One doesnīt know how youīre doing - itīs like youīre a scientist experimenting, trying to do the best you can, trying to throw it all together and make something cohesive come of it. The award was a great signpost for me to tell me I was in the right direction."
