That's really cool, I haven't even gotten any experience when it comes to an amateur set but your job sounds very interesting. :) I'd gladly read follow-ups later.

Well, I pretty much have no resources but I think it's important to write every single idea down no matter how stupid it sounds. I just got very into the feeling of this idea hence I asked specifically this one time.

Kick-ass, Hot Fuzz and Hugo Cabret. Kick-ass because you relate to the character and you want to be him because unlike other superhero movies, Kick-ass is actually possible. Hot Fuzz because you forget the jokes and you can remember them being very funny. It's very well executed and therefore...

Lol, the idea feels so pointless now. xD I suppose I have to wait until I understand stories better. Thanks for being frank though :P

Well, I came up with an idea I liked but I don't know if it's unique. In most cases when I come up with ideas they tend to have already been told VERY similarly in some other movie so I just wanted some input on the idea. I also have a few ideas of how things are presented and such. The genre is...

Well see, I can't act and I've always disliked the idea of acting myself. (Even if I find other people acting very fascinating and interesting) I'd welcome the idea of trying different methods in order to understand acting but doing it in a course is something I don't think I can handle that...

Alright, thanks for the input. The reason I asked is because I can't afford all of the courses so I really wanted to know which were the most crucial. Thanks. :)

Question, I'm picking a course soon but I wanted some help choosing one. There are courses for writing scripts, filming with a camera, making a screenplay, directing, editing and doing sound work. Now, as I said I wanted to be a director but obviously I have to learn and work in many of the...

Thanks for the input. :)

Alright, sure. I'll take a look. :)

Wow, thanks. I'll definitely take these things into account. :)

Haha, I will. My current problem is that I come up with what I think are good ideas but I can't execute them because it requires a lot of people to do it. Of course I write these stories down and illustrate them for unknown future reference but I don't seem to come up with good stories I can do...

While I'll take your advice into account, I'd like to work on a shortfilm for myself to see what I can do however I'll try find other people who are interested.

Very helpful advice, thank you very much. :)

I'll make sure to read all of it. What I first have to do is brainstorm some kind of story that'll work without and person in it. These links however will definitely help with creating a professional-looking script. Thanks!

Thank you for the support, these responses make me feel more and more confident. :D Before the profession felt very hopeless but the tips have motivated me further. I shall make a shortfilm as soon as I can, even if it might not be the best work, haha. By the way, really cool that you live in...

If I were to buy a camera however, which are the best out there? Or rather, which are the best out there that goes for about 500 pounds or less?

Honestly, I have no professional camera. However, I can use my iPhone 4s or my dads 1500 dollar camera. The equipment doesn't matter as much as the overall quality from what I've heard. That doesn't mean I'm not trying to gather good equipment, I just don't think it's as big of a priority...

Haha, alright. :)

Thanks guys, forgive me for the thought but I thought this forum was abandoned. :P I'll check out the Youtube links and read as much as I can. Currently reading "story" by Robert McKee. I'll take all the tips into account of course. Once again, thank you. :)
