I’ve been working in film up in Seattle since summer 2023 and I agree, the best advice I’ve gotten from multiple higher ups from various sets is to never stop creating. Whether it’s bad, good, unwatchable, whatever. At the end of the day, it’s your creation. Being a PA is great and all, but nothing beats creating your own films. It’s also worth to know is that its quantity over quantity when it comes to creating (something I’m still struggling to accept as a perfectionist). Just know that not everything will make the reel! Glad you had that opportunity to be on set Lake!
We were at home (it was days counting down before a coastal storm) but we were geeking out about Maya Rudolph’s husband too, and the last two PTA movies we saw were Licorice Pizza, hilarious, & Punch Drunk Love, really fun cinematography in that. My main comment was gonna be that I quickly learned Regina Hall = Scary Movie II, Regina King = Adult Swim’s The Boondocks, WOOPS. Both are queens!
I'm currently studying film in London and I'm in my first year. I appreciate this video as I found what you said at the end, about just making films, to be very informative. Since you're in your final year, I was wondering if you have any advice to give to someone who is just starting in their filmmaking journey. I know you're early on in your career too, but I was hoping that maybe you have something to share that you've learnt along the way regarding acting or making films. Anyhow, great video, and I wish you the best in your filmmaking endeavours.
Hey there! First, congrats on pursuing film. You're already on the right track, as I found going to film school has provided me with the base information and skills needed to become a professional in the industry. My advice would be to prioritize creating your own content and networking. I have had multiple people who are currently working in the industry (including when I was on set) tell me that it's all about who you know and if you have some work under your belt. An excellent way to network would be by submitting your work to film festivals. That's what I did, and just recently got back from one in LA where I connected with tons of people. I wish you the best of luck and thank you for watching! ☺️
Happy Friday! Hope y'all enjoyed this video. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe!
