Recently we have been learning about the world of work and we were thinking about what we would like to be in later life. My future ambition is to become a film director. A film director makes lots of the creative decisions for a movie and also edits scenes.

To become a film director a lot of experience is needed. The experience can come from working around movie sets such as being an actor/actress or cameraman or by creating your own short films and animations too. Creativity, time keeping, management and communication skills are also very useful for film directing.

I would like to become a movie director because I am imaginative and creative. This would be good for movie directing because I would need to come up with imaginative ideas for the storyline and make creative decisions for the movie. Another reason I would like to do this job in the future is because I like writing and reading stories and this would be like putting them into action. I also like making short films and skits at home with my friends too.

The challenge I might face if I become a movie director is trying to stay in budget when I have good ideas. I’ll also need to be able to solve and adapt to problems that occur on set like if someone is working around the area I was filming in and is making too much noise I could change set or film the scene another day.  I would like to gain some of my own experience in acting so that I would be able to advise and guide the famous stars I may be fortunate to be working with! I really admire, Emma Watson from the Harry Potter film series and my dream come true would be to work with her on set.

I am very passionate about movie directing and that’s what you need to be for any job. Even though I will face challenges and things won’t always go as planned, I would love to be a film director and will work hard to achieve it.
