  1. Hello, thanks for your replies. I think you do have a point with starting locally. I'll try to contact some of the DPs i like and see what comes out of this. Thanks again for helping me out here.
  2. Hello, i'm a filmmaker and have been making non narrative shorts for quite some time now. I'm happy with what i do and am enjoying it, but i understood that i need to learn much more about the craft to perfect it. Also, i'm being realistic and know that films like that won't be popular, so i need to earn a living from something else. I hope you'll be able to help me make a decision. I would like to learn cinematography abroad and eventually work as a DP in that country. I'm living in a small country where the film industry is almost non existent. It's getting better now, but still the amount of films released per year is way too few to matter. There are a few DP's i'd love to intern for, but still that would only get me work over here and i don't really want that. I worked as an event photographer for 5 years and later started making my own films. So i only have experience shooting my own work, i have never been on a professional set, or had to light anything artificially. So here's what i'd like to know: What are good countries for filmmakers? Preferably in Europe. How realistic is it to get a job in the film industry as a foreigner? Would workshops be enough to get me started? Unfortunately i can't afford to go to film school, neither money nor time wise. Unless it's a short course, max 1 year. Have any of you been in a similar situation? How hard was it for you? How long did it take? I hope you can give me some tips. Here is a sample of my work if you're interested: https://vimeo.com/150988047 https://vimeo.com/146121867 Martynas
