I'm a few steps away from enrolling in a kind of self paced entertainment industry apprenticeship program.
But, it's like a school, so you have to pay, which at this time in my life I'm willing to do, cause I so need a change of direction that I'm going.
So tired of working around the same blue collar types...I want to now work around people with creative vision and flair.
I don't know, either way I'll share a lot of what I go through here, and maybe even share the name of the program I'm gonna start soon, as well.

This morning, today, going forward, my life course has taken a serious turn or change, not sure for the better or worse, in that I'm now invested in the film and production industry, as a student, sort of. A hands on type of learner course, where they just dive you right into everything.
I've convinced enough important people that I"m a good candidate, and so now the pressures on me to not prove them wrong.
It costs money, and at my age should I have done this?
I don't know, seems nothing ever goes as planned.
I do know this, I immediately put down the 'bottle', metaphorically and literally.
I've invested to much into this to let drinking slow me down or distract me.
This is a serious investment, and it's now up to me to maximize it or waste it away.
And Im not making any money right now, unemployed.
Instead of just relaxing with the bit of money I got, now I've chosen to stress myself out with 'demands', wow.
But I did it cause I needed purpose going forward, I mean just existing just to exist can get you in trouble also, cause you end up getting into drugs, or drinking to much, or other bad stuff....so it's good to always be focused on a mission...and well, now, a mission I'm on, and that mission is to succeed at film and production, I have no choice now.

Right now I have so much anxioty inside of me that I just need to go take a morning walk, clear my mind, and then come back and focus.

Tomorrow, have to be at the set of a production, and I'm starting to get a bit nervous now before bed.

Film school/course vs just using that money to fund your own movie
Is film school or screenplay school worth it?
Depends.
But also, the days of just writing a screenplay and expecting some studio to buy it, hand you 50 gran, and all is good, well, those days are pretty much done.
I've pretty much concluded this course, and have mixed feelings.
If could do it again, I would not, there's a lot cheaper alternatives.
I would not do it again, and would instead invest my money in more tangible items...land, etc, things that will be there for you regardless of what kind of day you have.
Anyways, watch the video if trying to decide between film school or screenwriting school vs using that money to just fund your own movie.
