"Faith" in film school will get you no where

The act of attending film school is putting faith in a system and the idea that the system will make you a filmmaker. If it's not faith, call it something else. But the fact that film students are spending $200k+ and 4 years+ on film schools means that they believe in something. And usually that belief is that film school will enable them to direct films.

That mentality of an external system or force(i.e. a film school or money) may be correct when viewing an industry(law, medicine or even the industry of filmmaking). Doctors and lawyers need to pass exams and need to get licenses... However, when it comes to filmmaking(the art of filmmaking as opposed to the industry of filmmaking) this does not necessarily apply.

Filmmaking requires passion and creativity among many things. Passion and creativity are not things that can be bought(at least not with money) and there is no set formula for them. They cannot be taught in class.

Go pick up that camera and be a filmmaker. Strive to make great films and then actually do it.
