What should i do to get into film school and into the film industry?
-
i'm in 10th grade now and i'm gonna be doing my GCSE's next month, the point is i am not an american citizen nor am i living in the US therefore i cant go on film sets to experience or see how things work on set or in the movie industry. I'm really hoping to make it into UCLA, USC or NYU to help me in the future. i want to study screenwriting and directing but i also wan to act, i love acting and making up stories and scripts but i cant choose drama lessons at school anymore and there arent any plays or theatre events that would involve people my age... therefore...i'm wondering if anyone out there has worked in hollywood before or knows anything about it to give me some advice before it is too late..?

Answer:
WORK EXPERIENCE-It's key. Help out at a film company -there are loads of them in England too, smaller ones, you just have to loook etc for a few weeks or at weekends. My Dad started off as a runner and now owns the majority of a world famous post production company. The sooner you start the higher you'll climb! Good luck!

You're in grade 10! I'm in film school right now training for cinematography work and I didn't get my **** together till grade 12! Don't worry so much, just have a good portfolio and show that you can work in the industry. They pick people based on whether or not the students have the drive to stay in the film line of work, not based on marks so I'd do a lot of Comm Tech classwork and mess around on your own time.

a good portfolio helps, grades are good but if you can show them that u know what your doing then theyll take you as a no risk student, itll also help your grades and may even get you a job
