Frage von Destin:


Hello everybody,
I go now slowly Abi direction and accordingly I have some ideas / wishes for my future. My dream is to
in the film industry my living.
Now I wanted to ask here and study for possible branches, since the whole Berufs/studien- books from the school film and television production are always together.
I originally wanted me to film school in Munich and then apply Directing Study. The more I do it all the more anchdenke
plagues me more fear of failure, since man always sounds like
Reich risk and it is difficult as a director of a foothold. How, then, are
so the prospects when production or DV editing, or
Kammera studied?
(Is there ne exact name Sun for production matters or
video?).

My dream is just in this film industry to act, because I was
Whole Matter fascinated. The ability to tell people what they
to move. If I have someone to help you, or even experience what it has still has opportunities for study in the
Industry I would be very grateful.

The prospects are shit. The risk is enormous and his livelihood can be unemployed, in addition to many directors-synonymous only earn when you damn well is. Otherwise, stop you working all day with any school / amateur theater groups, but only because of your social Ader;). Or you can film yourself with students acting as Assi make. Great stuff! Directing is almost always freiberfuliche work. No fixed contracts, no guarantees. Only fear and risk. Always draw by the Republic, sometimes here, sometimes there. Little opportunity for relationship, dog, Family Account. There are many good directors condemned the "Hartz 4 refer. That was partly exaggerated and partly absolutely correct. Seriously, it's damn difficult and in all likelihood, you will no more successful director. But maybe you're so gifted, irsinnig well and are standing on a risky Lotter life;)

Insofar as understood - but does it a little more precisely synonymous? Would you rather scenic or journalistic rather make films? If the goal for which the cinema audience to do or what news for TV viewers? And your interest is more in the design, content or technical direction?

At least it is good that you wonder early on, because there is much wrong can be. From my perspective, it is important that early practical experience and contacts, but which nevertheless useful to study.

When I was political science, and today I have lots of jobs where the Client is expressly welcome the fact that the political scientist makes the films. The same is true for Business: Most editors are at the economic issues quickly overwhelmed and need experts who are synonymous with the complex interrelationships viewers can clearly explain. The course gives you the tools to you the whole life long learning in the subjects they reinzuarbeiten and reappraisal of the audience.

You have to decide whether you are rather than as an artist or craftsman look. If you see an artist, is a great danger that with the support does not work. If you see but as a craftsman, the wishes of its customers to implement cinematically, then the chance of much greater economic success.

Antwort von JoeDoe:

Hi Destin,
I was s.dem times the same point as you about 18 years ago and therefore I'm happy. Since I usmehrere years s.einer major film school was given, I think quite well in the picture to be.

At your place, I would first read everything, making it available to film professionals and is a few work experience students. Is synonymous to recommend the "Open Day", as it offers any film school, or individual counseling sessions in the courses you are interested. Above all, talk with practitioners from the industry or look in the times of the respective forums for occupations. As you notice quickly, where it hooks.
In short: Inform yourself as fully as possible before you make a decision about!

Among the facts:

Comparison of good career prospects have specialized and 'officially trained' professionals in the technical-creative field, like (Sound-) editor, cinematographer, etc. However, synonymous of which only a minority of "great movies", many have to take what they can get, to jobs at 'Nine Live' or 'GZSZ'. But at least they can usually pay the rent.

-Poor's looks at artistic Jobs from - screenwriters, directors, actors, etc.. Only very few can (only) like this exist.

Film-makers in this country are predominantly or exclusively for television in all its manifestations often dreary act. Most of them are freelancers. The movie is with only 120 - 150 productions per year as a labor almost irrelevant.

-The media industry is a highly volatile business, ie it is subject to fluctuations, and a revolution with uncertain consequences is imminent: The 'death' of the traditional TV's in favor of Internet services.

-The Times, as a film / TV is a medium for newcomers was, are gone. Usually is now a solid job-specific training expected, at least for the 'Heads of Department'.

Conclusion:
-You will likely only a petty, especially as precarious standard of living if you choose "Film-/TV" decide as a career.

-If you despite this sobering prospect for a career 'in the film aspire': Learn first a 'bread', to the bad times you can fall back. Only then probiers with the 'fashion occupations'.

So I would have it-in retrospect-made synonymous.

Despite, or perhaps this: Get your dreams and not take a lot of success!

Antwort von Chezus:

I am synonymous durchgefragt what this issue is concerned. My dream would be synonymous with the movie to work, so movies and what you will see. But it will probably top that I never rauslaufen director or producer in this industry will be. Still, it can be studied with similar reach, if not synonymous in the industry, but this was already written in detail.

What I always find very funny that the Business Film / Video / TV is always a thankless, poorly paid and of coarse see people working there, even if they never want to do something else just because the job is their dream. So it's not as bad as they describe, because otherwise they would have other railways have long been set. However, you can your dream synonymous in this industry reach synonymous wenns mal not the yellow from the egg is vorausstzung course is that it is not simply a spontaneous idea and you just do not want office.

Take everything seriously negative and informed yourself fully.

Since it is just very carefully distinguish between those that somewhere in a production just as employees are, and those who complete their contracts and acquire it. The latter is, in my view, very lucrative, if one is capable of such contracts s.Land to pull itself completely and then to realize. For me the works for more than 12 years of super and I can not complain at all. But I just see myself as a craftsman synonymous and not as an artist, never wanted to make things dramatic.

Antwort von Chezus:

Even. And the direction you're gone I will turn synonymous. We have already spoken.

Either you work at times with a film if you are lucky and then again on the look or the way it suggests that you've set, where you can with a lot of self-field which can achieve.

Film would irritate me, but only if I have the Lord of the Rings OFS Making anschauen if all employees + Actors tell what great time they had. Is just an exceptional film and so rosy, it is not always synonymous since the matter has gone to.

I do not think this job is tougher than another, where someone is self-employed. Since it is logically always synonymous to the existence.

I can Matthias' view basically confirm. If one is able to pull orders s.Land and then synonymous to the satisfaction of the customer (and of course, himself) with a nice team can implement, which is synonymous much fun at work can and creative ideas about also synonymous to pay his living expenses. :-)

Antwort von Destin:

Vielen dank erstmal soweit. Your confirms exactly what I've angst.
@ pianist, so I originally wanted more in the scenic area, not the journalists. Achje the world is somehow hard. From the link of Uwe les I know the man with some training and practical experience has good possibilities. Do you if I s.der Film School with a student focus Kammera also a possibility that most, if necessary nenf job resume? I think the Prinzipiel go yet.
What wär das denn für ne if I study in the technical branches would like (ie video / ton average, post-production). At this moment I am still striving students film and television to play. But at the moment I have no idea how the options are later umzuschwenken on one of the other above-mentioned areas.

But I am very grateful to you for all the info on it available to me. I'm going to get it all tomorrow at times restless again through bi still in school stress. I just do not want you all so late reply but since then something impressive erwckt her evrsucht me here to help and I see me not at all. No. I'm going to get all the links you've given me through nochmal in ruhe. So thank you again it means a lot to me really and I know your help is greatly appreciated.

That is why it is s.besten when everything yourself and then can only complete their own films makes, where a few days to rotate on and is then again a few days and textet cuts, it is beautifully balanced and you have enough leisure time.

I prefer the orders s.Land, turn themselves in half of Europe, cut themselves, do the graphics themselves, texts themselves, speak mostly of course, writing bills, doing the bookkeeping, the annual accounts and the tax returns. Only things like 3D animation, DVD cover printing, and DVD DVD-Encoding/Authoring-pressed to make external suppliers, with whom I have been cooperating for many years.

Usually I turn synonymous alone, usually I need no assistant, except for roadside surveys (even rotate and hold Microphone is crap, people would always look into the camera). The more people I would include, the more I have to coordinate these people and of course, synonymous pay, which means more stress, more uncertainty and less profit. Thus, virtually no time for any instructions on it and I have not s.irgendwelchen unproductive meetings to participate. My clients are synonymous to fully calibrated to myself as a single point of contact and have no other faces constantly appear.

Free camera teams, I only in very exceptional cases.

That is correct. For live productions or broadcasts with multiple cameras, the team is 4-6 people very quickly. It is true to synonymous, so that the financial risk increases, but if I only would see the risk, I would probably not independent. ;-)

Yes, of course. I just do things to fit my way of working. The nice thing is that it is the end product is not considered that there is only one of human design, because yes I still have enough time for the lighting setup or take. Productions with multiple cameras can make others happy, but there are enough competitors, something which again fits better into the concept.

Let us consider this: In a dramatic production there are long lists with the copier, then can then cut eindigitalisieren assistant. But who should be in my case, know what I scenes for the movie need? Before someone says I did, or even make the list, I have even done a long time. I finally know exactly where the recording is on what tape. Often I have from my archives for a film cassette 30 or 50 years from ten s.Wickel and as needed every 10 to 30 seconds of it, who should be there except what I found?

Antwort von Chezus:

Which is quite clear. Since kommts just back on the job.

Currently I have a lot of material that I have a tape in a 2 minute clip will be cut. What I have 8-10 hours of material need are 3 different images: the tape even when performing the visuals in the background play, whose dancers (sounds silly, it must be synonymous not know what this is for), the shot and possibly private recordings or recordings which incidentally play.

This is more or less sorted. Each scene in its own Schittfenster. If I have a specific recording needs, look I nurnoch in the right window, and such cutting me out of the material sorted out the right.

Is very time consuming and need not necessarily be carried out of me.

In another project can be once again completely different.

The "supervisor" of the editors responsible for all has been synonymous to me but rather discouraged in the area. "... for the time you invest, it is simply too little money ..." , And again "... but would never want to do something else because I love my job ..."

In the field study, I would at times directly inform the universities. A few of my friends go to the University of Applied Sciences in Salzburg. Nobody knew quite what he ultimately wanted to make.
