- Well, that just about concludes this training course on directing. Thank you so much for watching. As we wrap up here, I just want to plead with you to do as I say and not as I did when it comes to collaborating with your team. This whole project was a little wacky, making a movie and training at the same time. So, I oopted to take on a lot of roles so I could talk about my creative choices in this training. But, that's not ideal. I remember once watching an episode of Parks and Rec where Leslie Knope made her own newscast, and she played the news anchor, and she played the reporter, and the interview subject. And then in the credits, they were all just Leslie Knope. It was hilarious. But it was hilarious because everyone knows that film making is supposed to be a team sport. So regardless of what we did on The Assurance, or where you might be in your film making career at the moment, work towards finding a team to make movies with. I wish you the best of luck in your storytelling…
