I'm 14 and hoping to have a strong career in film making. I already started a script for a movie. It's coming along but its a very long process. If anyone wants to hook up and work together at some point, message back or look me up on facebook. Nick Zintel ... warwick, ny

@musicdork4ever if u have rich parents and friends who loooove movies, and are willing to work many hours, days, weeks, on a film with little to no pay, then yes. Oh, and not to mention film equipment, and at least a guy who knows something about cinematography and lighting, If you don't have that, then you;ll just end up with a crappy youtube video, not a film.

I think the best way of becoming a film director is by making a short film that people notice in film festivals. Of course directing is much like singing, either you can do it or you can't. It's the one thing that is based on creative talent. Therefore, by attending a film school, any aspiring director can get their hands on a crew, equipment, and actors with the same fervor to make movies, and IF the talent is there, you can get an agent and get work. Agree?

I always loved film in college and wanted to be a film director. I want to know how to get into film! I liked listening to music for the last two years because I never really listened before, but it was more for watching the videos and not the music. So, how do you get into film?
