Do you know what makes a movie a movie?
It’s an easy answer when you think about it. A movie is simply pictures stitched together to make up 24 frames per second to give the illusion of motion. I think of it as photography brought to life before us to tell us the story the artist wants to tell. It’s beautiful, messy, and beyond fascinating.
This is a feeling that many of us had when watching a movie that first shook us to our core and inspired us to get into the craft. No matter what department you want to work in the industry, there is always a place for creatives like you to come together to make something new. There is no small job in the filmmaking process, only small ideas.
Of the seven art forms to exist, filmmaking is arguably the greatest. From screenwriting to directing to editing, there are so many elements to filmmaking that elevate the art form and its experimental nature.
