Selling yourself short or having too much expectations

How are you doing guys?I have had a few projects in the past that I have done for free(when I was coming up) and have charged less than 1,000 for a short film. I know it's a major problem but I always tend to think that charging more than 1,000 (at least for me) especially for short films is like charging an arm and a leg.

About Me (MUST be more than 10 words to be approved):
I am a 21 yr old aspiring composer from Baltimore, MD. I am currently in college for Law and I am now writing a few scripts here and there. I love to network and dive into various genre's.
Right now my current set up is not up to par as most composers I must say. I am a beginner but still learning. I have came a long way to get where I am at. After dealing w. depression, dropping out of college and being homeless I now at age 21 have a good head on shoulders and I am ready to go back to University, continue getting my law degree and also getting my B.F.A and hopefully moving to NY within the year.
