In the modern age of filmmaking, it seems that getting into acting is easier than back then. Resources for getting into the film industry are becoming more available now, according to Vancouver Film School Student, Anmol Sandhu.

“And the thing about my acting experience is that all my instructors are working actors. They’re industry professionals. So we’re able to learn from the experiences they had and use those practical skills and apply it to us and help us grow.”- Anmol Sandhu

Sandhu also talked about his experience in film school. He said that film school allowed him to connect with people that made him feel as if they knew him for years. They take risks and support each other in a field that requires it. He also mentioned that the advent of streaming services also allows them to distribute their work easier.

Of course, not everything about going into acting is easy. Sandhu has heard from the people around him that acting is not a sustainable career. Despite this hurdle, he still decided to pursue acting. He has no regrets about going down this path.
