Cold Crash Pictures

 I recently watched an evaluatory video by filmmaker Cold Crash Pictures on whether or not I should watch


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpbO3T90-qI


This video was very enlightening as it opened my eyes to whether or not film schools are the right step for me: I have decided that film production is the place I want to go if I ever choose a film university and that short films and casting calls are definitely a step in the right direction if I want to get noticed in the industry.


I would say this video is reliable as while it is an opinion piece posted from  YouTube - It has been made by a working director who actually went to film school himself and so is very turstable and informative in evaluating the effectiveness of film school

Milestone 5: Documentary

 Over the six-weeks holiday, the worst came to pass - My friend's farm burnt down due to the UK heatwaves. As a result I had no location on which I could make my movie and as a result I was not able to film my movie in the allotted time period. This will not be the end of the project however, i have decided to take my year of experiences and training that i have given myself for this project and channel it into helping future young filmmakers who will one day be in my position while making their first movie and dealing with how difficult it is To this end I have decided to remake my film as a combination piece - half documentary and half art-film detailing my inspiration behind making my first movie and my struggles to get it produced.
