Sisters in Cinema - How to Make a Film Yvonne Welbon's guide to filmmaking is coming soon. There are many ways to learn about filmmaking.
Some people learn how to make films in elementary and high school.
Some learn about filmmaking through weekend seminars and short courses. Some people decide to study for an undergraduate or graduate degree. Some people watch every film closely and read every book they can get their hands on about filmmaking. Some people learn by doing, and being mentored by established filmmakers. There is no one right way to learn to be a filmmaker, but some combination of what is above is ideal if you want to be a successful filmmaker.
