I Chose McQuarrie due to my love of the star wars movies, Not only that but even at the age of 31 he still continued to develop his skills and become one of the main inspirations of the biggest franchise in the world. He is a great inspiration as it makes me feel like there isn’t really a time in your life that you can produce something great.
