Film Courage: Do you consider yourself an artist?
Chris Gore, Founder/Owner of FilmThreat/Author/Filmmaker: Wow…do I consider myself an artist? I would say yes in the sense that I try to do something creative every day and I try to live what I would describe as a creative life. I drove to your place here in my car and most people that buy a car…okay, they get their car and that’s it. I have no allegiance to Toyota and I turned my car into a batmobile where I have batman stickers in certain places on the hubcaps, on all the interior in the console. I covered up the Toyota logo with the batman logo. And if you ever come to my place, everything from the bookshelves is just something creatively stimulating everywhere. I always have some creative project I’m doing whether I’m modifying something. Even with my website and film projects there is sort of a handmade feel to it…(Watch the video interview on Youtube here).
