The hard work it would take to not only succeed in the industry, but to succeed in life. Under the direction of Academy Award winning director, Antonio Zarro, Cyril soon began to take what he learned out into the world and began leaving his mark on television sets and feature film sets.

Thanks to his mentor, Cyril was on a new journey.In the latter part of 2004, Cyril began writing his own short films. He established C.A.L.A.
