I'm 74 now and it warms my heart to see a kid have so much sensibility and gumption. When I was his age adults would just say "Get outta here kid..let the adults handle this." Well, the adults /didn't/ handle it. Thankfully we now have KZfaq AND kids like you that will end up fixing a lot of things. Good for you kid, GOOD FOR YOU. America should be proud to have someone like you in the next generation. And please realize that you are NOT a 'kid' but are smart young person.

Really smart guy. Not just about film making - a lesson in how to use film for social purpose. Great.

Makes you feel bad that you didn't get into filming earlier. To be fair George Lucas only picked up a camera when he was 18, there's hope for some of us.

& Paul Schrader (known for writing Taxi Driver, in 5 days nonetheless) watched his first movie at the age of 17. there's no age limit to filmmaking so don't feel too bad :)

there is? I feel really bad because cinema is something that I've ever wanted to do, but my parents were always against it, so with that in my mind and the fact that I didn't believe myself as well, that took me to different directions. now my journey took me to discover storytelling as my number 1 passion on this cinema world, but still with 22 and I haven't got into it yet... I'm trying to get into the college for audiovisual course tho. So even tho I'm still not that confident about myself, I'm trying!!! I have so many stories to tell, hope I get able to do it 🥺

@@soojintrust I mean I say George Lucas GOT INTO filmmaking at 18 - as to when he actually hit success he was probably 30 - that is the golden age for 90% of creatives. Sure, Orson Welles made CITIZEN KANE at 25 because he’s quite literally the second coming of Christ😂 - but alternatively Ridley Scott was in advertising for 30 years before making his first film at 40! But look at Martin Scorsese, Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan - and countless others got into the industry around the golden age of 30.

It don't matter if you have even a flipping $20,000 camera. If you don't know how to make a good film, no one will watch it.
