>> I always recommend that the people that I talk to that want to become film makers
if they're going to go to college for it I suggest that they double major.
Potentially double majoring with business as another concentration or law.
And the reason that I suggest that is because, well number one, if you don't get a job
in the field you have something else to fall back on.
But also if you have both of those knowledge bases you'll be able to get
in the industry in a different way sometimes.
And for a lot of the people who go to film school they want to go out there and they want
to be directors, they want to be writers.
And it's really hard to break in on those levels.
But sometimes you can get in as a producer,
or sometimes you can get in in one of the other camps.
And so the more that you know that you can bring in the better.
And also when you're in school work your butt off.
Get on every film you possibly can, work with every professor you possibly can,
take every internship or co-op opportunity that you possibly can.
Just work as much as you can without completely exhausting yourself.
Although as a film maker you will complete exhaust yourself.
But it's all fun and that's where the memories are made.
But so just make sure that you work really, really hard.
And remember that everybody you are friends with and that you work with in film school
or when you're in the industry starting out they will remember you.
Five, ten, fifteen, twenty years from now they may be your bosses or you may be employing them
so be nice to them and it may pay off.
