Jacob Felix - Grip
BY JACOB FELIX, CHANDLER, USA - I first heard about this project a few months ago. Immediately I knew I had to be apart of it. The opportunity to work on a film and in another country is unbelievable. I don’t have much experience working in film, but I’m eager to learn, and this project has a great group of people that I can learn from. Since getting more involved in the project, I realized that in the beginning I had known very little about how big this project really is. We are all involved in something that I can't even put into words.
I had never met Jabbes until a few days ago; I had only heard his story. On Saturday, we all got to hear him talk about what he wants to accomplish in making his film BAD TIMING and in teaching not only the film industry, but also the world about his country and the people of Zambia. His story and words are inspiring; the passion he has is incredible. Cindy’s determination to help Jabbes on his film and create the documentary THE VOICE OF AN AFRICAN NATION is also very inspiring. It's also amazing to see how many great people want to be apart of this project. Now, after all of us have been meeting and discussing more on what we are going to accomplish in Zambia, any fear I might have had has now been replaced with anticipation and excitement.
