I am Brandon Rowe, 17, and currently live in New Jersey. For the past three years I have attended film courses: In 2006, I took the New York Film Academy film course, in 2007 I took the basic film course at The School of Cinema and Performing Arts (SOCAPA), and in 2008 the advanced film course at SOCAPA, which is where I made "The City". I have interned for the New Jersey Motion Picture Commission and currently volunteer at a local movie theatre. My goal is to simply be able to make the films I desire to make and if at all possible be able to live halfway decently. If I were asked to name any influences, I would say Bob Dylan and John Cassavetes.
