My name is Sara Lewis and I'm sixteen years old, currently studying in Singapore (though I'm originally from New Zealand). I am very interested in Cinematography and am currently looking into taking it at University level but have no idea where to start in terms of qualifications beforehand.
I'm about to take IB (International Baccelaureate) and was wondering what the general course requirements are to get into Cinematography/Film & TV courses, i.e. are there any subjects I should be taking at IB level to help me get into universities? The school I'm attending does not have any Film Studies courses.
I am not experienced in any way, it's merely something that I've tried once and would love to learn more about. Are there any books anyone can recommend to me for getting started? Equipment? All I want really is some opinions on a good starting point for someone who is looking into Cinematography for the future.
Replies would be greatly appreciated, thanks alot :)
- Sara.
