I can believe you (by your userid)! And I have been there and tried to do that - but got back to hacking, as it is way easier than filmmaking. Filmmaking is freaking difficult - its good to be creative, but making films (real films, not the youtube ones) is not for the faint of the art! I decided to use my (art, music, film) inclination and combine my CS background to create a venture. Whether I succeed or not, is yet to be seen... Contact me (from my profile) if you want to learn more...
