Hello Everyone. I hope that everyone and their families are safe and healthy right now.
My name is Luke, I’ve been an originaltrilogy.com member for a few years now. Fanedits/fanediting/preservation have inspired me since I was 14, and doing my own edits/making shorts with my friends have really gotten me thinking about going to film school. Today I applied to Brooklyn College and a few other film production programs around the NY. I am happy with getting an ordinary job in the industry, I also really want a job right out of school. I know there are a lot of people on this site who are actually working in the industry, so I was wondering what type of advice you guys have.
I’m really interested in pretty much every aspect of film making. I like editing but I think my main interests are in hands on production stuff. I would love to be a gaffer, DP, audio engineer ect. But I’m extremely open to any job/career path. I know that most of the advice that will come from you guys will be things regarding ediitng, VFX, Color Correcting, and sound. I would love to hear what you guys have to say. IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HEAR FROM ANYONE REALLY. It’s a really weird time for everyone now, but if anybody is like me and who has a lot of free time I’d love to just talk.
This site has always been a great escape for me, and over the years I’ve realized how many extraordinary people are actually on here. Even though I don’t post much , I love this site, and now would be a good time to connect a littLe more with everyone. Anyways thanks. MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU…
