Try getting in touch with friends or aspiring actors in your area. Write a script, get a camera, and shoot it. Show it to as many people as you can. Get exposure. When you have a cool little first flick, most likely many more people will want to work with you. Then make another flick. Little by little, you'll gain resources and all-valuable experience until you have something that's worthy to be shown to the masses. Once that happens, send it to Film Festivals. Apply for them all! Go to them all. Meet people. Show them your film. If all goes well and you really have something worth while, people will notice. It's not uncommon for a festival placer to get a distribution deal on the spot. It happened to Kevin. And it happened to me.
Good luck and most of all, keep doing it. And don't give up.
