So.... I took the plunge and became a professional film maker. This is now how I earn my living, pay the bills and if I starve to death, it'll be my fault for doing something so completely insane.
My first corporate vid (branded content) is now on a website: www.HotSquash.com - This is womens clothing which heats up when it gets cold and cools down when it gets hot. I'd ask you to take a look, especially because I believe it is possible to make money shooting short films and that's what's on there.
Thanks to everyone who encouraged me (and boo sucks to anyone who didn't!)
There is a lot of rubbish advice: e.g. You can't make money out of short films. Well, I am making money out of short films which were a route to shooting branded content for fashion and technology companies.
And thanks again to everyone who encouraged me. Unless I starve to death in which case it was the wrong decision...
