“when the party’s over” by Billie Eilish
.
I love the vocals in this song (and the acoustics in my bathroom), and I haven’t been creative all day, so here you go XD
.
I can hear every mistake in this recording, and I would have kept going, doing take after take or not even posting at all, but eventually I had to realize that this isn’t a performance, this is practice. I’m practicing being creative. I’m practicing putting myself and my craft out there. I’m practicing imperfection.

Feeling incredibly grateful and nostalgic for our student showcase back in May as we approach my short film’s very first screening at a film festival! This is such an incredible opportunity, and I’m so thankful for everyone and everything that brought me here and all the memories we’ve made so far along the way. Praising God for the people and moments in these pictures and so many others and all the support and love they’ve given me throughout this process. You’re all such a joy to know and work with, and I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next for each of us!

I cannot say thank you enough to everyone that helped bring this film together and to the incredible people who are putting this festival together.
