What is one common mistake rookies make that youd advise against?
In this industry, everyone assumes they’re going to be the next big thing. My advice is: leave your ego at the door. You can’t learn anything if your ego is clouding your eyes and plugging your ears. On top of that, no one wants to work with you. It doesn’t matter if you’re really talented in your field—you won’t get the opportunity to show anyone if you’re not ready to work as part of a team. It takes an army to make a good film, not an individual.
