Shaun’s love for the showbiz is anything beyond outstanding, he has such an incredible love and passion for the entertainment business.

-Tell us about your project “HOPE!”.

The idea came about when I wanted to showcase what would happen when we all fall down in life and what happens after we fallen from grace; we do our very best to pray for the best and THEN a miracle happens; a prayer of light guides you in for a helping hand to rise from the ground and have another chance of life again.

-Which Director inspire you the most?

Alfred Hitchcock, Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard & Quentin Tarantino.

Too much hate and not enough love & peace in this world of ours. I believe it’s time to care for one another and show love & respect to everyone so this world can keep going, bring back the family values that once was back in the golden era in this day & age because we all need it.
