Question by +ViBeZ: Advice Please – Film Career/Schools, Beginner, etc.?
Well I’m 19 and my dream is to pursue a career in the film industry, mainly in the Directing/Cinematography area. Movies are a passion of mine, but I haven’t had any hands on experience (my HS didn’t offer any classes close to film production) or luck finding any internships in my area. I’m very creative and artistic (without trying to sound boastful) and very determined to follow this dream. I’ve written dozens of full and short stories and am very excited to get out there and start, only thing is, I don’t know where exactly to start.
Does anyone know of any film schools out there? Doesn’t have to be in the US, I’m actually looking at some in Brazil, and I know there are some good ones in NZ., I’m open to anything. And what courses should I consider? Any advice with anything to do with starting a career in film would be highly appreciated. You can Email
Thanks in Advance!!

NYU, UCLA. They both have pretty rigorous programs (and they’ll tell you what to take).
There used to be a book – Film School Confidential. It was pretty accurate… I don’t know if there is an updated version availble.
