About OzzMosiz
Expertise
I am a big film buff of most films 1965 to present day. My major expertise is on blockbuster films and up and coming films (films not yet released or completed). I have knowledge in everything from actors to directors to box office and budget. My major weekness is romantic films prior to 1965.

Experience
My expertise comes from having a burning desire around the entertainment industry. I am not a member of the entertainment industry but I do follow it extremely closely.

Answer
1. what is the first step to movie making?

The first step is to have a script or story. Without that, there is no film to make.


2. what is the job of a director?

A director basically is the "boss" of making the film. He/she is the person who tells the actors how to portray emotions and physical attributes in scenes. He is also responsible for arranging camera angles, back settings. Practically everything, although there will be specialists for particular sections (such as lighting specialist and sound specialists etc)

3. what is the job of a stunt double?
Due to the fact that studios cannot get certain insurances due to actors harming themselves (and because certain stunts are too technical), stunt doubles are used in their place.

4. what is the job of an actor?
To portray a particular character, to make the audience believe that they are that character.

5. what are some of the political view of the actors?
