Hey Steemians,

Welcome back to the ongoing series exclusively on Steemit. Directors Notes, A series about the behind the scenes of the filmmaking, producing, and directing that I do.

Today I am talking about the Maritime Documentary I made with a close friend of mine. I will include the documentary below.

So my friend worked offshore on a towboat. He was miserable after doing this job for 5+ years and he decided he had enough and was going to quick. I came up with the idea of filming the process of him quitting his EXTREMELY high paying job to chase dreams with ZERO promise of payment. So I sent him to work with a Gopro and told him to film as much as he could.

I figured he would give me a undercut amount of footage and that I would have to squeeze footage out of what he brought me. Nope.... Sean brought me 4+ hours of content from him working.. A TRUE insight to exactly what his life looks like on the boat, exactly how much he and his crew makes money wise, and him quitting his job. I interviewed him before and we spoke more in dept about how he was going to chase his dreams and leave behind a $100,000 paying job.

Here is the documentary:
