There's so much to talk about here, but I especially love your breakdown of the "triad of visual storytelling" - writing, directing, and editing. I desperately wish more filmmakers of all kinds understood how learning each of these skills benefits the others, even (maybe especially?) if you don't always function in that role. So critical. Especially in the creative/economic landscape we are heading into.

Yeah, it's something I've thought a lot about, and that's coming from someone who used to be a "Do one thing really well" diehard...
