alright i don't where to start really, i'm sitting here 3:50am in the morning, pretty drunk and going crazy and stressing onall the exams i have coming up and as much as i'm thankful and commited to a higher eduaction, * me if i'm passionate about what i'm really after. So here i am a 21 year-old girl, young women, totally lost looking for inspiration amd serching for pure drive, for that love that would push me to start from absolutly nothing, no *ing easy ways out or around, to exactly what i'm after and that is film, film making, script writing, absolutly every aspect involved.
cinema has been my inspration, my escapeism, my preference of art, i think its absolutly everything to me. Film can take me and infunece my emtions within less than an hour, it fules my imagination, and eeverything i'm interested comes back to film, in everyway.
So help me, tell me where i start, what camrea i should buy, where i should study, tell me wher to start..........this is my love, this is me film is what moves me cinema is what shapes me, its where i'm safe..
peace

Where do you start? At the bottom like all of us. You're interested ins script writing. Writing a script is a great place to start. Get what ever camera you can afford or hook up with someone who already owns a camera. Find some actors at a college or acting class or at a local theater and shoot some movies. They don't have to be great - just do it!
And when you have questions you'll find this group is pretty helpful - ranging from dedicated amateurs and teenage moviemakers to several levels of professionals.
