for me its a compination. Inspires me` 1. Watching crap films (especially the ones that cost millions) thinking I can do better 2. Knowing there are hundreds if not thousands of films needing filming and there are not enough directors to go around. 3. Directors are ither fading out i.e. career goes down hill, old age, drink, drugs, death, too stressful etc 4. Watching how other peole have make there movies i.e. behind the scenes. 5. Fellow people emailing you with prase or saying well done. 6. Selling your dvd knowing people are interested. Put offs......... 1. Hate mail usally three pages long 2. Big books about everything about film in extreme detail 3. people and books saying you need 100k+ blam blam blam....... 4. Cast and crew saying you need to go to film school well that does it for me what about you!

inspires: people you know getting films into festivals some cool music, dunno why but it does video games, usually rpg and horror the thought that everyone in my family for about 4 generations have been engineers or mechanics at the bottom of the ladder and that im amiing for something better. finding out people who have no desire to act can act better than drama students. jackass the movie, now if that dont prove you can make it if you choose to nothing can. a great hate for the current hollywood trend of remakes, and a wish to put britain back on the film map for more than crappy romantic comedys
put offs: getting up early to shoot and opening the curtains to see its raining. actually working with an "actor" instead of freinds and finding there a total pre-madonna that can do a much better job.
