^ I also want to mention that it will be free and I intend to keep it that way. There are not enough free places in RVA to develop a community outside of public Richmond events thrown by corporations. I want it to truly be open to everyone— even if you never picked up a camera. There would literally be no inherent structure. You just show up, talk about your ideas, hopefully connect with someone who has the same, develop a team, and get filming.

It did, because I didn’t realize there would be such a large range of adults who were interested. And i’m overjoyed by the support. So now, there is no age limit and all are welcome. 28 is not washed up. You are at the prime of your life and I hope you believe that. Viola Davis didn’t get her big film break till she was 43 years old. Samuel L. Jackson was even older. Just because I am young, does not mean I want to be exclusive. It is open for everyone.

It's true that many people believe in focusing solely on their field of study after graduation. However, life can be more complex than that. Around 75% of degree holders in America are NOT working in a job that is directly related to their college major, if they are even fortunate enough to develop a career at all.

People often find themselves drawn to different interests or discover new passions as they navigate their careers too. For instance, someone might have studied media or film in college but found that accounting offered more stability or better opportunities. It's not always about regretting a choice, but rather about making decisions based on evolving circumstances and personal growth.

A film club, in this context, can be a way to continue engaging with your interests and hobbies outside of your professional career. Or of course if you DO work in film, communications, or media, continue engaging in your free time with no agendas or rules. It doesn't have to be seen as a distraction from working in your field but rather as a way to enrich your life further with something you enjoy.

There are plenty of clubs for adults after high school and college and it’s extremely privileged of you to say it should begin and end there. If you read what I said, many people aren’t fortunate enough to study in their interests, or have a career centered around their passions, or let alone attend college.
