Well Im only 14 right now(nearly 15) and my ambition is to be a film director. I know its a pretty big ambition but Im not gonna waste my life in a boring job like my parents and all other adults in my life have. I used to want to be a Journalist/photographer as Im pretty good at writing and i remember when i was little i wanted to be an author (for the same reason obviously).

kepp on writing

 

it is very helpfull for film making

 

it helps you envision the scenes and hwo the script will go

 

though it is hard as going to a film school means nothing

 

you should start to play with video editing and other visual effects software and start writing

send scripts and videos you make to hollywood agents or put  it on youtube

 

this man made a $300 film and got a $30m offer from holylwood studio.watch the video and also read on wiki about it

there is no other way as it is majorly a contact based indutry or you have to be very good


thanks for the advice, that short film you linked to is really impressive(especially if it was done for $300). And i'll contine to write, i was even thinking about trying to enter the Amazon Studios website competition.

A film director! It's something I feel very passionately about, I recently completed a 3yr TV & Film course at College. Which really made me realize how much I want to be a filmmaker, I made a short documentary for my final project which revolves around me talking about some of them feelings, I called it, 'A Personal Voyage'. I uploaded to Youtube and if any of you's would mind checking it out and giving me some feedback, I would appreciate it, here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZTwlK1UCDk

As an aspiring director myself i thought I'd check out your short film, and id like to say its really good. I thought you just walking round such peaceful places really fitted with your voice-over of just pondering life, and the music worked well too. Keep it up :)
