Goals for filmmaking

My goals for film making are basically just to work my way up from gripping and gaffing and one day to have my ideas and thoughts portrayed on the screen, no matter how big or small the production. My learning goals for the course are to get better acquainted with cameras that I am not used to using. I also need more experience with post production and editing my actual footage. I hope to take from this class a better understanding of those aspects of the production process.
