: class I am in. To do this I have to ask some questions to someone in a
: career that I would like to go in to. I would like to go into the film
: industry. We are supposed to as someone in our community, but I live in
: Alaska and there aren't too many filmmakers up here. So I thought that I
: would ask you for some help with this one.

: How did you enter this line of work?

---I was a journalist. Writer for Film Threat Magazine.....and an
oppurtunity came up.

: What do you do on a typical day? What problem/decisions do you face?

----Lot's of talking on the phone. My main problem ...if you can call it
that..Is finding a good writer. So i spend alot of time reading scripts.

And drinking

Lot's of drinking

: What do you like most?What do you like least?

-----Bringing an idea to the screen..Seeing your vision realized.

Least.

There is alot of BS in this industry.....unneccesay attitude.....It can get
quite disgusting

: How can I prepare for a career in film?

----Make sure that it is 100% what you want to do. And make sure you are
satisfied with the fact that your greatest reward is seeing your work
actually made. The creating process is the ultimate success

If you are looking for fame or fortune

Buy a lottery ticket...or go into a public school wearing a trenchcoat
with both guns blazing

: What are some changes occuring in the field?

---Digital video...which I am a little wary of....It's not for me.....But
at least alot of people who normally might not be able to make films....now
can.

: What is the salary range for your line of work?

0-$10 million

: Do you have any advice for someone looking to make it in the film
industry?

--Tell stories that mean something to you

: I know that these questions are pretty boring. But this is my last hope
: for passing this class. So if you answer these I thank you.

---Hope it helps...Might wanna omit the Columbine reference before yah hand
it in
