START WITH CREATING A SHORT FILM

Why a Short Film? 

Because a short film can be used as a very effective stepping stones to producing full length feature films.  Once you have tested yourself on a lower and easier level (a short film could have a length of only 5 to 10 minutes), while a feature film is an 80 to 90 Minute movie with at least 75 to 90 scenes, and it's about the same for a script (screenplay) pages.

Producing a short film is a great way to start.    A short movie gives you the opportunity to learn and practice your movie-making-skills while not having the pressure that comes with producing a full length movie.   The making of a short film (from writing the short script to filming it and editing it) teaches you the basics of film making and it gets you ready for becoming a Christian producer and director.   

Many big time filmmakers in Hollywood started their careers making short-films.  Steven Spielberg used his "silent" 16mm short film Amblim (1967) (it was silent because he didn't have the money for a sound person) to get his big break in Hollywood and George Lucas USC thesis film THX 1138 (1971), perked the interest of Warner Brothers and was later made into a feature, which later helped him write, produce and direct the first Star Wars (1977)... and the rest is history.    Moving making has always been a very organized and creative step-by-step process, meaning you need to learn to walk before you may run with your first movie.
