Zitat des Tages über Filmschule / Film School:

Film school was a privilege I could not afford. Ava DuVernay

I got in trouble in film school at USC because one of my Super-8 movies there, in the first semester, involved a snowmobile chase scene. I made an action scene, and they were like, 'That wasn't what you were supposed to be doing.'

Doug Liman

I was happy when I got into film school. I'd simply satisfied my ambition to show them that I could get in - nothing else - although I do believe they shouldn't have accepted me. I was a complete idiot. I can't understand why they took me. Probably because I'd tried three times.

Krzysztof Kieslowski

I studied economics. I studied industrial engineering. It wasn't until later, when I was around 26, that I really decided to go to film school.

Raoul Peck

'Beyond the Lights' was my fourth film. I gained a lot of knowledge, and I'm excited to share that with young filmmakers because I know how lost I was coming out of film school with that question of 'What's next?'

Gina Prince-Bythewood

I was at the University of Miami, and I still had, like, a semester or so left. And through the film school, I found out that Al Gore was launching a new TV network; they were looking for passionate young storytellers to transform television, which was, like, ambiguous but magnificent-sounding.

Jason Silva

My son is trying to be a sports writer, and my daughter is a college student. She wants to be a comedy writer, and she's at film school. I discouraged both of them early on from getting involved in Starbucks. I didn't think it would be fair; plus, they didn't have any interest anyway.

Howard Schultz

There's a lot of dopes in life, and in film school. The interesting people are usually easy to find.

Tim Heidecker

Film school was a privilege I could not afford.

Ava DuVernay

I never went to film school, so I never had the chance to be rejected.

Wes Craven

Well, I think every film student goes into film school thinking they want to write and direct their own movies, and they don't realize how much goes into it, and what a process it is.

Alexis Bledel

I went to film school, worked as an assistant, and wrote several scripts that haven't gotten made.

Lauren Miller

Knowing what I do now, I don't know if I'd ever have the balls to go to film school, with no connections and no knowledge of the business side at all.

Michael Patrick Jann

'Lord of the Rings' was going on; like, my college years were the years of 'Lord of the Rings,' an awesome time to be in film school.

Evan Daugherty

To be a director, you have to think you're the best. Ever since I went to film school, I imagined that you have to think deep down that you want to be Martin Scorsese or you want to be P.T. Anderson. Like, am I as good as those guys? Absolutely not. I feel like I keep learning, and I feel like I keep getting better.

Jonathan Levine

You can do all the film school you want in classrooms, but if you are on the set, you are going to learn so much more because you are really in the middle of doing it.

Melanie Mayron

When I was in film school, I was learning more theory than practice.

Louis Leterrier

I wanted to stay in New York to pursue acting, but my dad urged me to get a four-year degree. Reading about the film school at Florida State University, he suggested I go there. I received my bachelor's degree in 2003.

Lauren Miller

Film school is a complete con, because the information is there if you want it.

Paul Thomas Anderson

I didn't go to film school, I went to acting school.

Charles S. Dutton

Every inch of my writing career has been influenced by my screenwriting education. I was lucky enough to go to film school at USC, and I got a crash course in how to tell a story efficiently. I learned structure, pace, my style, how to know your audience, and most importantly, how to take criticism and edits properly.

Victoria Aveyard

I actually went to film school, but I didn't like it. I'm basically self-taught.

Judah Friedlander

I went to film school so I have a writing and directing background, and I think a lot of the material I'm interested in writing and getting out there is stories about anti-heroes and people you should just not ordinarily root for - trying to figure out a way of appealing to people they wouldn't normally appeal to.

Danny McBride

When you start out, you're hungry to take any job. I didn't go to film school - I went from high school to a show about high school and on to directing.

Tim Van Patten

The informing idea of what you want to say and do, that's what will take you from film school to professional - the idea. That's what is original to you.

William Friedkin

Talent has no gender. People are hiring young male directors right out of film school, off of a student film or off of a film at Sundance for millions of dollars. You can do the same with a female. It's not a risk about the work if you respect the film that they made.

Gina Prince-Bythewood

I actually went to film school and was making experimental films for a short time, so it wasn't such a leap.

Jim Coleman

I did not go to film school.

Richard King

I was a kid who went to film school and fell into acting.

Edward Burns

I work with a group of actors, and whenever one of us has an audition, we all get together, and we all work together on it. I think it takes us back to our film school days, our drama school days, us just working together and figuring it out because somebody else is going to see something in the material that you won't see.

Omar Dorsey

There are so many young women in film school right now, and it's just about foreign sales companies, domestic sales companies agreeing to finance films directed by and starring women.

It was the beginning of film for television. So we had all of these great opportunities. Northwestern was probably the only major film school of its kind at the time that was graduating anybody important.

Richard Donner

I'd always wanted to write a novel, but after attending film school, I'd spent five years knocking on Hollywood's door and had put that idea aside.

Ransom Riggs

Going to film school taught me how much I already knew, and that the best way to learn about film is being on the set with professionals.

Devin Ratray

I do tend to take time off. A year and a half ago I went to film school, and before that I had taken years off at a time to be involved politically or this or that.

Sarah Polley

I wasn't the kind of kid like Spielberg or Lucas who knew to go to film school. I didn't know at 12 what I was going to do; it took me until I was about 23. I studied journalism in college, but after school, I got a job in public television and I never worked as a journalist for one moment.

Nancy Meyers

I'd like to go to NYU business school and then go on to film school.

Alexa Vega
