You Need

I've been wanting to make short films, for years. I absolutely love all things related to cinema, and it is the primary influence for my photography.
I have scouted locations, written scripts and storyboards, priced the "necessary" gear that I would need to purchase, etc.
In the end, I never pull the trigger.
See, I have a problem where I don't want to do anything badly. I don't want to half-ass anything. I end up crippled by this fear that my lack of preparation, proper equipment, knowledge, etc, will lead me to failure.
Well, today, I challenged myself.
I must shoot a short film, today.
No script. No storyboard. No special equipment. No lighting. No microphones. No fancy locations. Nothing that could potentially end up being an excuse.
Today, I just wanted to prove to myself that, even without any of the "necessary" things that I "need" to make a short film, I can still pull it off.
It's not long. It's not fancy. It's not perfect. But, it's here. I made it and now it is real.

Enjoy...
