Director Statement

DREAMS is so near and dear to my heart, I see Finn as a self insert character embodying my own struggles with art and what I wanted to do in life. I feel like the crew really made Finn their own as well through development.

I hope that people who relate to the character of Finn can see the hope in their being more opportunity on the horizon. There are so many more colours than just Red, Blue, Purple and Green.
