Hello all. I am an ameture in filmaking....ok, I'll be honest; I have no idea what I am doing, but would really like to. I hope to one day be great director myself, and in preperation I have been studying the greats and their works, BUT, that's only half of it. The other extremely important part is the actual process of filmmaking. Besides knowing that you neec comstumes, makeup, sets, and actors, I have no idea what else you need such as types of actual film, lenses, etc. I have no idea the difference between 35mm and 18mm, I've never even heard of 8-only, so yes, I am lost. I would greatly appreciate the help of someone more experienced to explain to me these film terms and processes.
:) -Any help what-so-ever are VERY appreciated.-:)
