•Find ways to make your movie stand out and intrigue. You
could achieve this through an unconventional story, or unique
cinematography.

•Make sure to follow basic filming rules such as the rule of
thirds (imagine the screen is split into vertical thirds and always have a
focus point or vital character in the scene in the furthest left third), this
makes it much more interesting. Rarely is a character in the very center of the
screen and make the film look much more professional in the end.
•Watch a lot of movies with a critical eye—not so much to
critique acting or direction, but to understand tones, styles, how sound is
used, how lighting is used. Look for errors, too: for the budding filmmaker,
these are illuminating. When you're watching a movie at home, pull that movie
up on IMDB. Near the bottom there is a section entitled "Did You
Know?" that is loaded with trivia and goofs for virtually every film and
TV show out there.
•You can make high quality movies using cut for the iPhone
and iPad. If you’re just starting out, use your iPhone or iPads camera and an
editing app for great quality.
•When you finish your movie, share it with the world. If it
is a serious work, bring it to film festivals where it might be picked up. If
it is a small, casual work, host it on the Internet for the world to view
freely. They're both paths to different kinds of fame.
•If you're shooting a documentary, you probably won't spend
time developing a script or storyboarding. Instead, come up with an idea, and
set goals for shooting such as what is the purpose of this film? What audience
will it appeal to? What new perspective are you providing? Set out to capture
as much footage as you can, and focus on the editing and other post-production
processes (such as adding music).
