Cinema: Expectation and reality

Our generation has been growing up with the awareness of wealth and the impact that the cinema would have on people's life. The evolution of Television, Internet, film industry, social networks, magazine... We have been immersed in all the diverse situation and news that people share over the world.

The objectif of many magazine and television as well as social networks is to create some envy and jealousy on people who succeed. Big houses, cars, watches, luxurious brands, excessive parties... All these images are on our head and we all hope that it will be us one day. Life looks perfect, everything is possible and reachable. Many people who want to enter in cinema industry think that it will be the result... Be careful, you will probably be very negatively surprised.

Expectation and reality are two things completely opposite... The reality may be more difficult to envy, that means that we can dream as we want but we cannot do everything without being down to earth. Working in the film industry is not always related with luxurious cars, big houses, clothes... It first means : WORK and PERSEVERANCE. We don't have what we want without doing nothing.

We have to be aware of the obstacles, the bad encounters, the disappointments, the tough work that we will be going through. If I were to give an example given to me by people in this industry, I would say that it is primordial to not be focus on the wealth and what this work may bring us some day. It better to forget this idea and be focus on your passion, the job you are doing each day, the one which makes you happy and proud to wake up every morning.

Trust me, the industry doesn't give us what most of people expect. Hence, be careful !

If some people want to share some stories ( except if it is too personal ), you are welcome to do it here !

Thank you.
