    I'm 17 and also want a career in film. Best way is to write your own script. Many actors and directors started as interns for production companies. Many directors don't recommend studying film making. You can also start of as an actor and work your way up from there. You can start off filming commercials or music videos. Make an indie film. You can check Craigslist or ebay for the camera and laptop.

    There are many careers in the film industry, so it depends on what you want to do. So my best advice is your 17, college is just around the corner. Chose a field of study that will lead you there.

    Practice using your cell. There are tons of editing apps and your local high school/college should offer courses for that kind of thing.
