Justin Baldoni Instagram – Something nobody really knows is that for a minute last year I was considering giving up on my dream. I felt uninspired creatively and my imposter syndrome was at its peak. Then I saw an early screening of #InTheHeights and I was reminded why I loved directing movies. It lit me on fire. I felt like I could feel every cell in my body. I felt connected to both myself and the world. I wanted to dance and sing! The ability to still have empathy and heart while balancing a big-budget visual spectacle is SO difficult and rare in our industry. @jonmchu is one of the most talented directors I know and I was so geeking out over the chance to chat with him about his dream on the @wearemanenough podcast. Our industry can be extremely problematic, but I still believe that the dreamers and storytellers can succeed in Hollywood without falling into the “Boys Club” which rewards power, dominance, and white men. #JonMChu is the prime example of a dreamer who tells stories through his perspective and continues to spread his light into films. When I grow up, I want to be Jon M. Chu.
