For those of you who are thinking about getting into filmmaking or movie making, there are a basically three options available.
If you're thinking of going the film school route, there are many
fancy tech schools that offer Bachelors and even Masters degrees in
film. None of which you actually need to be a filmmaker or work in the
film industry. These tech school often charge $20,000 a semester,
footing the graduate with a hefty $60k - $100k student loan payment when
it's all said and done.
After that, there are smaller technical schools, usually taught at
the community college level. These school offer a large amount of
information, sometimes just as much as a large technical school, with a
smaller financial commitment. They do not carry the swagger of big name
high price schools, but the education you receive is equivalent. Not to
mention they don't carry with them the crippling financial burden of
enormous student loans.
Finally, there is the good-ole do-it-yourself education. It Internet
provides an array of information, most of which is free, on all aspects
and topics pertaining to making a movie. Basically everything that is
taught at a high price technical school is available on the internet.
You just don't get all the fancy cameras, lighting, and grip equipment
to play with. The downfall with the Internet is the credibility factor.
Anyone can create a website and post information. How do you know what
works and what's hogwash?
This is why I created the Online Film School Boot Camp. A place for
young aspiring filmmakers to learn the fundamentals of filmmaking such
as Screenwriting, Directing, Pre-Production, Cinematography,
Lighting/Grip, and Post-Production. All the curriculum was created by me
and taken mainly from my many years of filmmaking experiences. As far
as the credibility factor, I have plenty of movies available to watch on
youtube that speak directly to my skill set. Everything I teach comes
directly from my own filmmaking skills and real life experiences.
The Online Film School Boot Camp is a good stepping stone to begin a
journey in filmmaking with immediate gratification and no strapping
financial burden. Come check us out today.
