Great advice. Be a realistic filmmaker. Learn something new everyday. Learn from theory. Learn from practice. Learn from people who inspire you. Never give up. Stay curious. Keep positive. Always creative.

He makes some great points and I agree, film schools should teach students how to make a living at their craft. They should also offer more courses on film business.

James' comments are spot on!  I could have had more success in visual media far earlier had I taken some business and marketing classes.

LOLZ what great advice I guess you just have to turn the sound on in order to make great movies.

Sounds like great advice from a very experienced filmmaker.
