How does one become a director?

Question

If you go to Film school, what happens after film school? What do you do?
Or what about other paths?

Answer 1

Ususally these days you are an actor first, but that isn't necessary. A good film school will teach you how to get the work you want. Be sure to ask if they do that before enrolling; if you choose not to go to film school, you try to get any kind of job as a production assistant on a film and work your way up as they like your contributions. The other thing you can do is to make independent films. Tough but with a great script you can find backers and good actors. It is another thing that film school should teach, how to make an independent film.

Answer 2

I feel there are schools for that, however should you wish to begin directing immediately take a look at browsing the web for a few unbiased film budget... Or write a script suggestion to a colossal director and desire that he's going to love it... Or simply shoot it along with your cellphone mobilephone and submit it on You Tube...
