[@scoob1670]

I like this interviewer :) He seems very engaged and like a fan!

[@WeegieMovies]

Edgar Wright is such an inspiration, I hope to one day have a tenth of his talent! Baby Driver is a strong contender for my favourite movie of 2017, easily.

[@shaunstark1365]

thank you for asking for that video on "visual comedy" thats my fav video i watched it when i became a fan of Edgar Wright and learnt alot from that video :) Wright is an absolute artist

[@princesssookeh]

4:17 is just so sweet!

[@leytonjay]

He said he hopes it can withstand a rewatch?!? Jesus,I wanted to see Baby Drivet again as soon as I saw it and I've thought about trying to download it to double check it before I buy the Blu-ray.

@@rabidwombat1912 well that fucking escalated quickly. while i do agree with the sentiment, i think that's a bit of an overexaggeration

Not gonna lie. I thought Edgar Wright was the same person as Simon Pegg until I read the cast to Hot Fuzz.

It doesn't help that when I hear the name Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg's face pops up first

4:00 Love Wright's passion here. I'd end up being the same! Haha

[@CMontgomeryBurns09]

Over and over, you see filmmakers from Edgar Wright to Quentin Tarantino to freaking Mike Stoklasa (Red Letter Media) acknowledging that formalized film instruction is useful, but degrees themselves from film schools are not. I never understood why many artists were so interested in "art schools" in general; to me, the arts seem like the career *least* suited for university education. STEM, education, health, economics, etc. sure, but not the arts!

[@Syllence]

He's so modest!

[@loux.]

Then how do you become a director, with out going to film school?

[@josephdocherty7919]

UnxleLou make a screenplay and send it to a company e.g. BBC or Netflix, if they accept it then congratulations your now a film maker!

[@joseurrutia1877]

Joseph Docherty it’s probably not that simple but that’s the dream !

[@KingPhoenixx]

Love Edgar wrights work but this is the first interview ive seen, he seems like such a nice guy which only makes his work seem better. If u like that symbolism with the lift/stairs the cinemawins video on this film points more stuff like this out. these kind of details are what make him one of my favourite directors

[@ryanhasmanners9997]

Why is this un listed

[@victoriansquirrel]

Honestly, I'm very interested in being a director, but how do I start? I can write the script by myself and soon I will have photography classes which I hope will teach me how to do beautiful visuals. But where do I get the actors from? Where do I get all the expensive equipment from? When I've finished a movie, what do I do with it? Also I'm kinda shy (I'm working on that) and a small girl, how do I get people to listen to me?

[@sammulrooney1686]

I would say start off small, doing short films and improving your craft, looking over them and see what you could improve, if you want actors I would suggest your friends can help you out, for equipment start off with a camera (not so expensive) and editing software (videos on KZbin that can teach you how to use it) and slowly build up from there, post your short films on here if you wanted, so people are seeing them (if not that many but some people are) if you have a job save up for better equipment etc to improve the quality of your short films until you feel confident enough to make a feature film :D

[@victoriansquirrel]

Triple Digit Productions Thank you! I'm already thinking about investing in my very own camera (because it will be useful in photography lessons too). Now the only problem are actors, my friends are either camera-shy or just not very gifted actors. But I'm sure I'm gonna find someone. :D

[@sammulrooney1686]

Maybe you could do abstract type of films where there's just weird visuals that make the audience either go wtf or make them think about what they've just seen XD

[@natpearce37]

lace x ribbon I want to make movies as well but right now, I feel the best thing to do is just make as much stuff as possible, no matter how much it sucks. Just make short clips with basic plots. You don't need to show them to anyone, just get them made. Eventually, you'll be a pro.

[@mosesreed8979]

lace x ribbon Hey my name is Moses Reed and Iam film director I made so much films in college so if you want to make a film together we can so text me back if it's a yes or no

[@diegor-d2745]

So, if you don't get into film school, how do you start working for film?

[@diegor-d2745]

That sounds like I'm saying you should be in film school, but I'm really just wondering since I'm interested in film

it is but I'm not sure if some of it's not for clarity for non-native speakers, like "in the country" -> "countryside". There were one or two others I noticed as well but I can't remember them without re-watching
