That is so true! I totally agree with you that the best way to actually learn filmmaking is by making films. However I gotta say that even in film school, there was way too much emphasis on getting the process and the paperwork right that, though I did get to participate in student projects, I really still felt totally unprepared to be a filmmaker. A lot of what I feel I missed learning in film school I've learned from books and online, and of course by jumping into filmmaking myself. :)

I see what you mean. I guess it's always about some kind of mix of all these ingredients. Let's just say that I got this tendency to study stuff for too long a time before I jump in. I'm working hard to get better in jumping in a little earlier ;)
Yeah, I find it easier to study than to actually "do" as well. :) By the way, can I see any of your work? I'd love to!
