Hawkins also attended acting and screenwriting classes throughout his academic career, while practicing martial arts and fight choreography, all lifelong passions.Upon graduating from college, Hawkins wrote, directed and starred in "Prick", a micro-budget feature with actors and friends he had met in school. Film Threat called it "a solid indie drama, with comedic levity."
