Dive Schools question by cherryblossy: Are film schools worth my time and money?
I’m an aspiring filmmaker, only 17, and next year I hope to attend the International Film School Sydney (assuming I’ll get accepted). But are film schools really worth it? Should I just dive straight into it instead?

It’s a lot harder for an Australian, seeing as how the resources are very limited in comparison to, say, the US.

Dive Schools best answer:

Answer by Nyx
Not really. A film degree doesn’t get anyone anywhere. In Hollywood its about connections and talent, not degrees, its one of the few fields where you don’t need a degree to be successful. What happens when you don’t make it in the film industry? Its handy to have a practical degree. So learn about filmmaking, dive into it, just don’t get a 4 year degree in it.
Why don’t you make it a minor in college instead?

Response by David88
I will do my greatest to reply actually query you have.

You ought to begin with consuming some good outdated fashioned h2o. I would not advocate Intelligent drinking water however simply because that tends to give me a headache, so just normal filtered spring h2o. Help save the Gatorade for following the workout due to the fact Gatorade has salts and electrolytes that will quench your thirst, but perhaps dehydrate you before you exercise.
I would not worry also significantly about stretching ahead of your work out since you will have the possible of pulling a muscle, but afterwards you really should stretch really a bit, particularly your legs and arms (I would be a lot more distinct but track and area is a really varied sport and I do not know what occasion you are likely to compete in, I suppose the mile).
When you operate brethe through your mouth and nose collectively, but it might just really feel like you are breathing by means of your mouth.
A stopwatch will support you track your runs, a pedometer will not help you as considerably as a velocity distance this kind of as Nike+ or a GPS these kinds of as a Garmin ForeRunner. I do not suggest either, I just operate with a view so I know what time it is and how extended I have been working, particular watches these as the Timex Ironman Triathlon will store data these kinds of as intervals.
I wish this info is ample to get you started out.

Feel free to message me and notify me what occasion(s) you are performing so I can be far more certain and good luck!
