Tiny Buddha’s First Short Film: All by Myselfie

Today’s the day! Finally, after months of preparation, collaboration, and learning, I have Tiny Buddha Productions’ first short film, All by Myselfie, ready to share with you.

As you may remember, I shared a post in January, detailing why I decided to launch this production company, in partnership with my fiancé.

Months later, I shared my top four lessons from attempting something new and difficult, when you have boundless enthusiasm but limited experience.

This film took much longer to complete than we originally anticipated; in fact, I imagined I’d be sharing our second film by now. While patience isn’t my strong suit, I’ve come to realize all good things take time, and they’re usually worth the wait.

For us, this was. We’re thrilled with how it turned out, proud of the message we’ve shared, and hopeful you’ll enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.

If you do enjoy it, we hope you’ll consider sharing it on your blog or social media pages to support us in this new venture.

Thank you to all the amazing cast and crew who helped bring this film to life. You touched us, inspired us, and made a positive difference in our lives, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the chance to know and work with you.

Update: It’s been three years since I wrote this post, and I’m excited to share that I recently finished my first feature screenplay! It’s a story about family estrangement, the pursuit of fame, and an underachiever’s mission to make an impact before his final day. At its core, it’s a film about what it means to matter in life. For this reason, I’m selling a limited edition “You matter” shirt to help raise development funds. If you’d like to support the project, you can grab a T, tank, or hoodie here.
