I'm trying to get into film as well, any words of advice.
Also if you know your ideas are fly? Why don't you try to pursuit it? you can put your movies online for free(youtube, your site) and make money off adds.

I was gonna do that, attack the market like a rapper. My short films would be my mixtapes; I'd release as many as I could online and try to get them into film festivals. When I started to gain a following, I'd go and find Jay-z and pitch roc nation film division and be welcomed to the team and handed a couple mil for a low budget feature length and when that popped off and we got a return of about 20 mil..... I'm gonna stop here, my plan would've worked though:smugdraper:


and nikka we in the same boat, fukk I look like handing out advice to the competition :pacspit:



















































If you want to be behind the camera/scenes

1. Take workshops, fukk film school. Every film school graduate I've linked with has told me if they could do it all over they'd just take workshops but school is better for networking.

2.If you want to pursue acting you should go to school and try to get into as many theater productions and student films as possible. Know that acting is a true art form and you really have to develop your skills.

3. Never take advice from a nikka that never made it.:youngsabo:

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
How is he paying for all this traveling?

On another note, I don't think he's fukking models... or even wants to, dude seems like he's asexual. Ole amoeba ass nikka...

:laugh:



He took out a small loan and said he had some savings.

Best way to keep costs down is to avoid Europe, stick to Asia and Latin America.

Not so long ago, if you told me I wasn't going to be making 7 figures, driving something foreign, going to a different city every week , and fukking models, I would've told you that you were out of your fukking mind and meant it.

Now I'm looking at my stats and I don't think it's going to happen for me. I'm 26 so damn near :flabbynsick: making just below 50k/yr :sadbron:, about to move into a new spot with my girlfriend, who is subtly pressuring me to make her my fiance. I hate to say it but I think I'm about to be married with kids, having barbecues flipping burgers with white ankle highs and sandals :why:




Or I could get on as a civilian merchant seaman with my homie, travel the world, and still hold on to my dreams for a while, I'd just have to let go of everything else go.


What would you do and is this a quarter life crisis?

You make approximately $4166.66 a month. That's more than my dad who's a bus driver. Here's my advice (pretty sure you're going to ignore this post anyway but oh well):

1) Save up money and visit Brazil or the Dominican Republic.
2) Never get married especially to an American women (who will gain weight and become uninteresting 5 years into the marriage).
3) Learn a 2nd language (i.e.: Spanish, French, etc.)

:takedat:

a) Life isn't a f*cking music video, wake the f*ck up.

b) If you don't know what you want, DEFINITELY don't get married. You should be 110% sure about marriage if you're gonna do it, that sh*t is FOR LIFE :whew:
