Yeah i have a job right now, life guarding pays $16 an hour which isn't bad, and i'm at the beach. I have most of the things i need right now to make an alright film if i had the right script. A decent camera, vegas 9, a car, and friends.

im no expert or anything (i mean ive never even looked into film making) but wouldnt all the production and stuff be pretty expensive? i mean the MAKING of it might not be, but the producing it might.

You can write your own script. That's just needs practice in writing. Then proof read and revise it until you're happy with it. A decent camera can come in time, as would vegas. You can try starting off with a YouTube channel, it will give you a lot of practice in a lot of different areas.
     Other than that, the car isn't really needed. And I'm sure you can make some friends, lol

Holy stuff dude

Well, to get on-topic. To get into a filming career you can probably start off by making a pretty decent mini-series of sorts on teh internet. But before doing any of that get settled into a Job that pays relatively well for someone of your age, and save up some money to buy some film-making supplies or some nice editing software (You don't have to do all of this, these are all just ideas on how you can get started). But in the meantime start making some scripts or get together with a friend with similar interests and make some ideas for a mini-film or series and write the ideas down on a notepad or on the comp. If none of this works out then at least have a backup plan of sorts.

Thats all i really have to help you out man. I really can't think of anything else to help you out sadly. Im 13 so i can't think of all that much, but i'll see if i can find anything else to help you out.

Good luck.
