Live. Dream. Create. (2012) || A Short Film By Michael Law
If you had the chance to experience freedom, would you take it?
Live your life.
Dream of the stars.
Create your future.
This is the 2nd Short Film made by Singer/Songwriter Michael Law
I would like to share with you all something very special to me. As you all know 2012, has changed my life. In 2012, I decided to take a chance at life and did something I have always wanted to do for a very long time. But the fear of failure & the unknown had often prevented me from Touring Australia and creating a fanbase across the nation.
Somehow I found the courage to overcome my fears and insecurities and began touring Australia in 2012! It was the BEST thing to have ever happened to me.Travelling across the country, I have seen the beauty of life but also experienced its cruelty.
I've also learned the value of appreciating what I have. So often we pursue things we desire but take for granted what we already have. On the road, I've learned to adapt to living a very minimalistic lifestyle. Often I would walk 1-2hrs while carrying 20-30kgs of busking equipment just to save money on public transport. Living without TV, computers & internet allowed me to fully experience life for the first time in my life. It was a breath of fresh air! I have also met a lot of wonderful people (you guys) who were supportive of my music and my journey across the country.
This journey has made me see the world through another perspective. So I have made a short film entitled "LIVE. DREAM. CREATE". It basically describes everything I have felt in this past year, mainly the joy and freedom of pursuing a dream. And I hope this short film inspires other people to do the same.
The future is yours to create, don't let it slip away!
It took me 7 months to make this, I filmed this across the country in between and during my tours of Australia. I hope you enjoy it and feel free to share this with your friends and family.
