“The Film Connection, in many ways, is a blessing; it truly is the ‘Film School of Hard Knocks.’ It helps new students to gain experience and network, while they learn. It teaches one thing I always preach to young filmmakers: practicality. But more than that, it gets new students and would-be filmmakers, writers and editors, a chance to connect personally one-on-one with their mentors.
In fact, my very first student has not only grown to be someone who I have helped in the industry, and life, but also a trusted friend. And I now have a vested interest in seeing them succeed – as I would like to see all my friends succeed. Ideally, that is how it is designed to work.” — Sam Borowski
