Adam was 15 and was shooting an action comedy short film he wrote and directed.
The meeting in the abandoned dial-up chatroom was probably inevitable.
Today, Via is the author of a lifestyle blog with 3,074 posts and a 100,000-strong following, a blog design award from Cosmopolitan and a best-selling book.
And Adam is a film researcher and story consultant coming back from writing scripts for film, TV and the web, to apply his ten years of research into what makes stories work and the profound effect they have on our lives.
