"I turned down a scholarship to a video-only school because I wanted to learn on real film before it disappeared forever. Shooting on 16mm or 35mm film makes you measure twice and cut once. When dollars are rolling through the camera minute by minute frame by frame, and you only have three reels for this scene... you make sure to cross your T's and dot your...
...lowercase j's.
If you get that reference... we can be friends.
I think this is where my understanding of production and planning stemmed from, and that's carried with me through my entire career as a filmmaker.
I can also load a camera film magazine in a black bag. That's a life skill!

FOODIE JOE'S VEGAN CHILI
COMING SOON TO PHILADELPHIA
In early 2020 I will be launching Foodie Joe's Vegan Chili to the world.
Back in 2017 I was entered into the Super Philly Chili Bowl by a friend and wound up taking home the Grand Champion prize beating out 14 other chefs from restaurants across the city.
Shortly after I began serving my chili in the Kawaii Kitty Cafe but stopped doing so when the cafe business model was transitioned into an ice cream shop.
In the upcoming months I will begin to sell my award winning chili at cafes and restaurants across the city. I already have a couple interested parties and couldn't be more excited.
For more information on how to carry this chili in your restaurant or cafe, or for locations on where you can purchase Foodie Joe's, visit www.foodiejoe.com
