he really goes into the practical aspects of filmmaking. Sure, some of it is about why a dp would choose Red over Arri, but there is a lot about entry level work, too.

if it makes you feel any better i work at a production company (in the digital dept) and often feel like i’m out of my depth. i don’t know the film lingo!!! i like what others have said here, ask lots of questions :) most people are nice and if they’re not you probably don’t want to connect with them anyway

If you want to work on film sets, go work on film sets. It's blue collar work. You learn by experience, not with a degree.
If you want to write screenplays, read screen plays. Study english if you want a degree.
If you want to be a cinematographer, or an editor, or VFX artist, watch a youtube video and start making shit. Study journalism or comms or multimedia if you want a degree.

The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists.
The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished.
People who’ve paid attention won’t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.

I’m 50, I say because that makes me unusual in this context. I paid [redacted] for a ticket to the Eras Tour after listening to tswift for 3 weeks, and it was worth it. In second grade my teacher gave kids birthday spankings over her knee, and in sixth grade my teacher told my mom I hadn’t blossomed yet. I’m a good friend, mostly to people on the internet. I’m good at conversing with strangers. I’m usually the oldest person at the show but don’t feel like it. I’m good at being helpful. I’m sarcastic and funny and make myself laugh. I’m a good graphic designer and a conscientious driver. I’m a good photographer and I can successfully follow recipes. I don’t use my Peloton enough. I did a lot of caregiving for my mom for several years, and we enjoyed spending time together even if it was mostly in waiting rooms and my car. The fastest I ever ran a mile was eight minutes and six seconds. I drove the same car for 20 years and then replaced it with another one. I enjoy tipping, giving money to people on the street and Disneyland. I am a fan of baseball, Formula 1 racing and the Criterion Channel. I solve about 80% of New York Times crosswords. I take Prozac and Wellbutrin, and take Trazodone to sleep through the night. I wish I had a glassed in solarium so I could sleep in it on rainy nights. I would like to have a pet cat and a garage. I could happily live eating only cereal and fruit. I overshare on the internet and undershare elsewhere. ✌️💛
