Great video as always. I'm finishing my 3rd year of film school, and one other advice I'd give is to already start getting used to old movies and foreign language movies. You're going to watch, study and analyze movies from all decades and countries, and even at this point I still have classmates who have trouble watching some films because they're too used to Hollywood stuff from the 80s to now. There's a lot of good stuff from outside this Hollywood bubble, but it might take some getting used to start enjoying it.
I was a high school film student, I took some time off to buy my first car and house. Now I’m ready to continue my film director journey, thanks for the refreshing information! 🎬🎥🎞
A little bit of Monika Thank you! At first I was worried, but it was worth it at the end. I finished my storyboard and I’m currently developing a book for my story. I will arrive to film school prepare to shoot and cast 🎥🎬😎👍🏻 Do you still work in the film industry?
i literally disvcovered you like 30 mins ago, im also dominican and im really interested in film school and youre just making me so excited, thank u for doing this videos
Hey I just found your channel and thought it was great. I'm still exploring and you kinda gave me some shapes on how to start my dream of getting to film school and make myself feel positive that I won't be stucking in Vietnam studying Maths for much longer. High School here kinda sucks and Uni is not much better. I've always been interested in movies but never found anyone I can relate, until bumping into you. Lol I've never hold cameras and edit anything but this should give me some head start. I'd love to here more advices from you. Thank you for these information. Keep doing videos. I'll be supporting you! ❤️ from 🇻🇳
i absolutely LOVE your channel, i too am dominican and want to study film abroad. Your videos just inspire me so much and guide me in a way, reasure me, and make me believe in myself. You are a role model to me, thank so much for making these :'D
Thank you for making this !! I’m going to film school next year in the fall and I’m so nervous. This video helped me a lot, I’m so glad I found your channel. 💛
I got enrolled into a film school and the classes would have started this month if not for covid. now it's delayed. i came across your channel and it's like a blessing because i don't have any idea about any technical stuff related to filmmaking. i can't even edit videos very well. the only thing i can do is photography and that too from my phone. i want to learn everything but i had been feeling so scared ever since i got in because my classmates would know so much beforehand and i know nothing. I feel like i would be a joke for teachers and students. i graduated in commerce and decided to go for filmmaking in post graduation. i have been watching your film school series and i feel kinda relieved but still scared of having no skills. the only thing i always do from the things you mentioned is watching lots of movies and series. i watch something everyday and have a passion of watching all the films and web/tv series. that's what made me enter this industry. thankyou for giving me a bit of relief and motivation. you deserve so many followers! :')
What an interesting video ! Thank you so much for sharing ! As a cinephile, It's always been my dream to go to a film school. I really wish I could there.
Hi Monika! I would really appreciate it if you made a video about how you got your internships and jobs, and could you share what you did in those positions??
My parents literally are doubting me and have no faith in me because I have no knowledge of what I'll do in film school but they don't get that much like regular school I'll learn but unlike regular school I actually want to be there
I'm not sure if you've done it already but can you make a video recommending some good editing sites and apps for beginners? I was always interested in editing and would love to make videos but I don't know where to start!
I have a question! Where is the best place to live in LA? I am an international student and just got into USC’s MFA in Film - but I have never been to California before. SOS!
Hey Monica I don't know if you would come across this comment or not but I really feel like to post one probably (it's my first comment but I think it's worth it) hearing from you , a film school student saying that she was an absolute normie in the times when people are just absolute expert in their choosen fields , it was soo motivating that you could make it to the top. I just wanted to ask to you that how did you really feel that you need to go to film school that it was your field and you would have future and it
