It's good to be different!

what students learned from Kwez Thompson

 

  • I thought it was really interesting to hear everything Kwen had to say. He had some really neat stories to share and he was really good at explaining everything clearly. It would have been good if we had more time to interview him because our class had lots of interesting questions and you could tell he had lots of stuff to share with us. I'm looking forward to doing more of this because really good questions are getting asked and life stories that we can all learn from are being shared with us. I think these interviews are a really good idea and we will learn a lot from them.

    . A question I would've liked to ask, had there been more time, was if Kwez had ever run into a time where the film business had not been so good for him.

    It was great that Kwez gave us lots of detail on his answers to our questions. I love the idea of having people come in with different mindsets on life but at the same time, they all seem to be successful in their own ways. It shows that when you persevere, you can really go places.

    One thing that really stood out for me from today guest speaker, Kwez Thompson was the fact that he didn't know exactly what he wanted to do when he graduated from high school. I don't have a very clear idea of what I would like to do, and it was really nice to hear that even though he didn't have an exact idea of what wanted to do in life and he has ended up doing something that he loves. Learning that he has been able to pursue his goals so far across the world makes me hope that one day I wil be able to do the same with something that I love. If we had more time I would have liked to ask Kwez if any of the movies that he has worked on have affect his life on a personal level. I really liked that his answers were really indepth and he was really open with everything about his life.

    Before Kwez Thompson came in to do the presentation today, I was expecting him to be less outgoing than he was. He turned out to be a very outgoing person who has seen a lot of the world! It's really interesting being about to find out new things about someone who is living a different life than you. Kwez is an example of someone who strives for their dream because he's always wanted to do film making. I enjoyed how his answers to the questions were very detailed and not just one word answers. Although we only had a little amount of time to ask questions, I feel like I've learnt a lot about Kwez.

    Kwes was a very interesting individual, i definitely would have loved to have spent more time discussing things with him. Filming and movies has always been one of my strong interests. A couple years ago i wanted to be an actress but later gave up on that dream because i never thought it could be possible for me to even get involved with the business. But maybe it isn’t an impossibility, maybe one day ill pursue that dream. Thank you Kwes for your time an effort it was appreciated greatly
