Filmmaking is a chance to live many lifetimes. We don’t make movies to make money, we make money to make more movies, and the filmmaking process will teach you that you need to be authentic–in your scripts and in real life.
“Pick up a camera. Shoot something. No matter how small, no matter how cheesy, no matter whether your friends and your sister star in it. Put your name on it as director. Now you’re a director. Everything after that you’re just negotiating your budget and your fee.” James Cameron
