A question that comes up often for people who want to break into the film business is whether they should go to film school or not? Most would agree that one does not have to go to film school to work in the film industry.

For those who do go, what benefits and advantages do they have? How hard is it for those who don't go to film school to break into the business? What's the first job a film school graduate should go after? We hope to answer these questions and much more.

This video features people who have gone to film school and many who haven't. You will hear both sides of the argument and you will benefit from the experiences and lessons from 20+ filmmakers.

Stuff we use:
CAMERA - This is the camera we have used to film 90+% of our interviews (over 200 interviews and counting) It continues to be our workhorse - [ Ссылка ]

LENS - Most people ask us what camera we use, no one ever asks about the lens which filmmakers always tell us is more important. This lens was a big investment for us and one we wish we could have made sooner. Started using this lens at the end of 2013 - [ Ссылка ]

AUDIO

Rode VideoMic Pro - The Rode mic helps us capture our backup audio. It also helps us sync up our audio in post [ Ссылка ]

Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - [ Ссылка ]

LIGHTS - Although we like to use as much natural light as we can, we often enhance the lighting with this small portable light. We have two of them and they have saved us a number of times - [ Ссылка ]

COMPUTER - Our favorite computer, we each have one and have used various models since 2010 - [ Ссылка ]

EDITING - We upgraded our editing suite this year and we’re glad we did! This has improved our workflow and the quality of our work. Having new software also helps when we have a problem, it’s easy to search and find a solution - [ Ссылка ]
