Challenges for a Fresh Film maker

Challenges for a Fresh Film maker

There are many challenges which a film makers faces during their life in the industry, and I also had mentioned about some of them in my previous posts. But have you ever wondered about the challenges a fresher has to face after just at the start of their career? Well, for the people who dream to become a filmmaker surely will. The first very challenging job for a fresher is to think 'Where to start from'. Now after doing your graduation and getting the degree in your hands, either you can continue doing masters with struggling getting into the film industry along side, or just choose one of them. But to start a journey you always have to decide from where will you walk through. For a fresher for their work to reach in the industry is also quite a challenging job, but now a days thanks to technology it makes it easier, but not a piece of cake. The next challenging path is contacting a producer. Sometimes it gets very tough when it comes to pitching as you have to wait for a long time, and have no contacts in the industry. You can also produce your own film, and later on distribute it the way you want to according to the capability you have. Their are many actors, editors, directors, cinematographers, music directors, etc. present in the industry. So if you are giving a debut in the film industry it can also be challenging as indirectly you will compete with the people who are already present for years. The work being portrayed also might at start not be seen or reach your expectations, but this is not always the case. If your lucky you never know. For gathering a team as a fresher you might face troubles, but later on when your work will become a success people will be keen to work with you as well. There are  also people who do not let you survive for a long time, so it's very essential to learn how to fight through it by showing your talent. There might be people in the industry who will also help you by walking in your path, and there also people who will try not letting you get away with your work. Just like in the real life; good and bad people. After my degree I will also become a fresher in the industry, and help myself thinking that it is not impossible, even though it might be rough at start but it's very vital to remember that the people who you see today were also a fresher at their start and later on became famous, so you can also do it as well in your own way.
