As this year winds down and a new year begins tomorrow I thought I would offer some help with your new year’s resolutions. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to go to film school but are concerned about the time or money. Or maybe you just want to make a film but aren’t sure where to start. Well, Robert Rodriguez (Once Upon a Time in Mexico) has a no-cost film school that just takes 10-minutes of your time. Happy New Year.
Keep in mind that Rodriguez started out as a kid making short films in his San Antonio backyard with his family, and he keeps that tradition alive today in Austin by making films with his kids that are just for personal use.

Excellent piece – thanks for sharing. Love that the 10-minute film school is less than 8 minutes long.
I wonder if tarantino would do one of those?
thanks for the video!
Tarantino talks faster than Rodriguez so it may only be “The 5-minute Film School.” But it would be a little more disjointed so you’d have to watch it at least twice to fully comprehend what he’s saying.
Plus, unless he’s changed, he’s not a big fan of shooting video so following his school would be a little more expensive due to film costs.
