How to start a career in the film industry?

Hi, I'm a 16 year old male, and the film industry is my favourite place to be in. I've been film making since I was 13, and since I don't have many actors in the family, I've been in all of my short movies with my 11 year old brother.

This year, I singed up for drama class in grade 11, and It's great. I'm one of the few individuals who can bring characters to life while performing. After being in my first christmas play, I've been receiving so many compliments from the teachers, parents, and students themselves. They even filmed the play, and I actually impressed myself.

Here's my question; i'm a good actor, and a good derictor and editor, so what? How can I start a career in those fields? Is it possible to become both? (director and actor). Thoughts, information, and suggestions are much appreciated.
