Sports Analogies

There's a new REVIEW out of Austin today.

Sometimes I tap into the mindset of an athlete and imagine filmmaking as a sport.  When obstacles come up, it's helpful for me to imagine them as meek defenders trying to guard me.  It's up to me to shake them off and take the ball hard to the rim.  If it's all just a game (and it really is) than the occasional strikeout or disappointment is quickly put in perspective because we have four more at bats tomorrow and another twenty-five next week.
