    Keep focused.

    No, I don't mean keep your camera in focus
    (although that DOES help), but I mean keep focused on your project.

    Yes, I know I've said this all before, but I have put off and put off projects so long that a 10 minutes short has ended p taking over 5 years from initial writing to filming...
    I still haven't finished editing!

    So, if you want to do a project, do it!

    KEEP FOCUSED!

    Never work in a bad fen shi enviroment. There's just too many negative forces to focus. Trust me I know.
    Oh yeah and never work with family...talk about negative forces.

    Be prepared to kill your darlings.

    Every scene should serve the purpose of moving the film, as a whole, forward.

    No matter how cool a scene is or how much you love it QUENTIN TARENTINO WRITER OF PULP FICTION HATES THAT RULE AND BREAKS IT SO THERE!! NOTHINGS GONNA MOVE FORWARD IF WE DONT BREAK CONVENTION. TINK ABOUT IT MAN..

    In Tarantino's case, each scene moves the character development forward.

    Keep motivated and stick to things until they're finished, or else be prepared to tell people in the future your career is pumping gas at a Mobile station...
