George Simpson Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Hello everyone. Came across this forum website and loved all the threads and information on it. I am 17 and from the UK. I am an aspiring cinematographer, like many people on this site. But this really is my passion and love nothing better but to film. Im lucky to have a reasonably good quality camera, a Sony VX2100E. I would LOVE a HD camera but ohwell, maybe in the future. Wasn't sure where to put this topic on the site because im asking for a couple of things, so i apologize in advance. Firstly, im currently in college but would i need to go university for the career i want to pursue, or should i go straight into trying to get experience. Secondly, does anyone, in the UK, know where i can get experience, in a work placement. What is the best way to get into the industry? And finally, here are some of my films. I love doing sport shots, especially biking. So i have alot of short films of other subjects but here are my biking videos. http://www.pinkbike.com/video/93070/ http://georgesimpson.pinkbike.com/channel/Kechs-Trails/ Any comments and advice would be great. I would like to work on my videos to make them better I know you probably gets loads of posts like this, but any help would be great. Much Appreciated, George.
