So, I am finally kicking the habit of working in an office and following my dream of becoming a film maker.

Starting in 3 weeks I am starting full time study in documentary film making, kind of freaked out and nervous as the class environment has never been something I have enjoyed, I rather learn on the job. But I guess is will be worth it.

So I have quit my 52,000 a year job which was driving me insane and hope to push my insanity on others through my visual point of view in the near future. I know a few of the old crew here have been study film as well so it will be good to catch up with you through here and bounce of each other gain now I am free again.

The fact I hate money making money probably helps because I don't expect to be making any again for some time....

I mean I could sit in a cubicle and stare at a screen of other people bank transactions for another 30 years and have a happy retirement. but who the fuck wants to work all your life killing your soul for a happy death, I never did, which is why I have been travelling the past ten years gathering life experience and working as a casual, but then went full time to save some cash and have some paid hollidays for a change.

That just enforced my views more.

I don't feel it's brave, what does anyone have to lose but there dignity and their virginity?

And I lost both of those years ago.

It'll all work out, I promise. This is a step in the right direction. Good luck

Hey Disease! Congratulations. I'm doing the same thing. In the middle of my third semester at film school. We'll have to keep in touch about our experiences, haha.

All the best to you. I was enrolled in film school 30 years ago, but ran out of money before classes started. Poor planning there.

at least you have something to fall back on if ya fail.and work experience always helps when ya finish,rather than come strait out of a life of school.

Nice one man hope it's a great course.

So do I, from what I have read about the school, the facility's are pretty good, don't to much about the guy taking us on the course though.

It will be nice to be not working in a bank anymore and I can change my ringtone to something else instead of Embraces money. Do you know that one?
