Not only are you putting your thoughts and feelings out there, you&#8217;re visually presenting yourself to the world &#8212; hoping the audience will connect with you and relate to what you&#8217;re trying to express. Christophe reels people in from his first moments onscreen, setting a friendly and focused tone. There is something both professional and personable in his presentation.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps most effective, however, is Christophe&#8217;s enthusiasm for his subject. As images from\u00a0<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vmpfilms.com\/Notes_from_the_new_world.html\" target=\"_blank\">Notes From The New World<\/a><\/em> and<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dostoevsky-bts.com\/\">\u00a0<em>Dostoyevsky Reimagined: The Making Of Notes From The New World<\/em><\/a> flicker behind him, he extolls the virtues of working for an indie film company. His excitement is palpable, and his earnest interest is unmistakable. He&#8217;s whole-heartedly committed to not just promoting the works of VM Productions, but of finding out what happened to Hurley.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/146424811\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center><br \/>\nIn the attempt to discover what happened to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dostoevsky-bts.com\/about_robert_hurley.html\" target=\"_blank\">Robert Hurley, VM Production&#8217;s mysteriously missing screenwriter<\/a>, you can see Christophe&#8217;s investigative curiosity come through.
