How to become a film artist?

[Kavita]

Before you start telling how to become a hero or heoine, let me make it clear, my question is how to become an artist in the film world, not necessarily as in the art films, but should have some commercial success too.

contact Shakti Kapoor!

darn...

well...if u r a male u can contact Karan Johar....

As I said bfore, me would much rather surrender myself to a grizzly bear

Anil Kapoor? i dont think he's that type....[/b]

arey yaar, ontopic kuch soch ke batao na, hamesha ganda majak acha nahi lagta

What are different kinds of people apart from director, choreographer, actors, involved in a film making. Whats the nature of thier job and whos job is the more demanding (I mean demanding lot of hard work)? Who is a cinematographer? Whats still photography, motion photography...

The Chief-of-da-movie-Staff is Undoubtedly the Director
The purse Strings belong to da Producer
The one-who-sees-that-costs-do-not-escalate is the Production Controller
Then there is the Executive Producer whose role I don' clearly Understand

Movie making is like a well-oiled machinery where there are many people
who are involved right at the grassroot level right to the top.Important people
include the Producer,Director,Editor,PR guy,Exec.Prod,Music Dir,Lyricist,
Stunt Co-ordinator,cameraman etc etc.

The ones responsible for the actros n actresses coordinate their shoots
are the Secretaries I guess.Then there are the 100 odd spot boys arnd
who do chores like moving the Camera Trolley,handling the cranes,
providing lighting,handing out coffee/Teas etc.

Cinematographer is the Technical term for the Cameraman.He is involved
with the Angle of shot,Lighting used,How the scene is to be shot,what
lens to use,how much to pan and other details.Generally he has a trusted
assistant who holds the camera and shoots the scenes.

Here I must say that since I was ina hurry,I could'nt provide all the details.
More later

Thats lot of information I didnt knew about.

well if theres one thing u need its contacts to become anything india espically if its to do with films...well if you wernt involved in theatre during school days and even if you were but ur school wasnt reputed and ur very talented but u dont have contacts then its not gonna be easy..but i think a person like you who has a serious intrest in acting (i think ur serious since uve choosen serious roles over commercial ones) u would have friends who are into the same thing or share the same dream & inerest rite? maybe they would be the best to help you if they act with some theatrical group ..or another thing u can do is attend alotta plays in ur city befriend the regulars and ull get in...



best of luck!

Kaika artist..... I dont find any artists in recent times. Hero hona tho Paise dikhav, Heroine hona tho chote kapde pehne aur badan dikhaye.. yehi hai aaj kal kaa funda
