I live at a student housing place called RMIT village which has around 450 people living in it and has many communal areas like the TV lounge, swimming pool, gym etc. Last month on a Monday night I was sitting alone in the TV lounge just changing channels to see which movies were they playing on Foxtel when a Chinese girl called Sam came and sat next to me. I finally chose to watch Avengers 2. I had already seen it before so I asked her if she want to change it. She said she was just bored and just wanted someone to talk to. So we started talking. She told me she’s studying social sciences. She got quite excited to find out what I was studying. She said film making is something she has always wanted to do as a hobby. Her favourite director is Chris Nolan, whom I’m a big fan of. She told me to show her my work so I just showed her some of the stuff I had on Google drive on my phone. She actually asked me if I wanted to work on a short film during the holidays. She had a couple of ideas in mind and told she knows how to operate a DSLR. That’s about it. She was more in to coming up with ideas and scripting. We exchanged contact details and we do chat quite often and we’re planning to do something short and simple soon for a start. Glad I met her. Her command over English is quite good compared to other Asian students. I think it will be good to collaborate with her.
