Breaking into the Movie Industry just got a whole lot easier. Have you heard about Film Connection Film School in San Angelo, Texas!? It’s amazing. Film Connection is an externship program that places you in a fast-paced production environment as well as paring you with Mentors that can guide you to the career you’ve always wanted.
You have to face it. The traditional old school route of going to film school is dead. You don’t graduate from film school and then get a job in the industry. It just doesn’t happen. You have to go out and make movies on your own time and dime. Well, that’s exactly what Film Connection does. It helps you to make the films that you want to make.
The San Angelo Film Connection not only assists you in making the movies you want to make but it pairs you up with a Hollywood screenwriter, an editor, and two mentors to make the process as painless as possible. Sounds incredible, right?
That’s because it is. Film Connection was established by filmmakers for filmmakers.
And the best part? We haven’t even gotten to that yet. The best part is that at the end of our program you’ll sit down with a studio executive and pitch him your movie. There’s no guarantee that you’ll get picked up, but a chance to be in the room with a studio executive is once in a lifetime, right?
