Rob’s Answer

That's fantastic that you have that drive and interest in running your own company. I believe that's a fundamental instinct you have to have in order to be successful. That said, there are a lot of aspects to running a business outside of just what you produce/sell and typically it helps to have some hands on and real world experience working in the areas/industries where you have interest. I would suggest using your talents to get aligned with a company that is nimble where you would be able to get hands on to learn and leverage that experience for your future business. The good news is that you have time on your side given you're still in HS.

Alma’s Answer

Hi Dalton,

I love your entrepreneurial spirit.

It sounds like you are already producing and editing your own films. If I'm correct, I suggest you start offering people to produce or edit content for them for a nominal fee. I think this could help you see if you want to pursue this full-time or if you just like to do it as a hobby.

Here are some suggestions on the types of films you can start creating with the equipment you may already own:
- Non-profits need commercials and social media content and don't have large budgets, so they would appreciate your expertise
- Small business owners may also appreciate your film services to get the word out about their business
- I have also heard of some YouTube and TikTok content creators hiring a videographer to produce their videos

I hope this information helps!

Best,
Alma
