Damn

I just workshopped the actors in my short movie during class. My prof made a ton of suggestions and broke down all sorts of problems I had with my movie. It's great, because I feel rejuventated to make a really great film, but sad because I couldn't get there on my own.

How do these first time filmmakers do it? How does one direct? It's so freaking hard to see the problem with your work, yet it is so easy to see the problem with others.

Dammit. Will I ever be able to do this job?
