What do I have to do to work on a movie set?

Postby raide on Fri Sep 29, 2006 11:27 pm

Someone tell me, all I want to do is work on movies, I don't care what I have to do.

First off, be careful what you wish for, and never tell anyone you'll do "whatever" it takes. Some disgusting people will hold you to that.

Secondly, you should figure out what you want to do, this way you can set your sights on something specific instead of just a general idea.

Right, but I mean specifically. As in, "I want to be a salesman" what do you want to sell? Cars, Newspapers, Insurance, Drugs? Big difference, I was just suggesting that raide pick something out to focus on, and that should help give direction.

I consider that film this abruptly. And to work over film this simply super. The cinema informs us that of that to us in a life so does not suffice.
