Want to be in the Film Industry.


For those of you interested in getting into film, her is a few tips into making it a little easier for yourself.

1. Movie to LA or anywhere that movies are made quite often. You wont be able to get a film job (unless you're really lucky) in a small town in Pennsylvania.

2. Decide what area of film you want to work in. If you're not specific, then you might end up as the re-recording mixer and not the script writer you wanted to be. So, if you get the chance to get into the film industry, tell them, right away, what part of film you want to be a part of.

3. Meet people that work in Film. Go to parties, screenings, film festivals...etc. This is important to get your name out on the market so people can start hiring you.

4. If you would like to do production work look into journals such as the Hollywood Reporter production breakdown. This will tell you what independent films will need production assistants. This can get you acquainted with people all over the industry.

5. If you are in college, look for internships in major studios or independent production companies. Make sure you get to know the people you are working with, this will also help you get great connections.

6. Once you have got the job in the industry make sure you work hard and make everyone know that you want to be there. This will help in becoming popular with other productions in the future.
