whatever man thinks of manifest to the real. believe me when i say this.

I know nothing about directing movies but from what I've learned watching them. I plan on directing this movie one day, and would like to let you all know. Maybe even winning the oscar...

thank you for that well thought out response.. i've noticed you pretty much often respond to my posts with really really detailed responses, i like that lol. your post pretty much summed up what i assumed.. now i know i'm going into film school for sure lol.. now i just gotta make sure i hustle...

i'm talking about those who actually went to film school and finished with a degree.. and went to hollywood, but didn't make it.. what can you do with that degree? surely it could get you a job in something simiilar right? like a music video director or something? commercials?
