Why you should be following Bregje Heinen



You can count on one hand the number of supermodels that are also abstract impressionist painters. Or, at least, you could start counting them on one hand, but it would go, "One... um... does taking Instagram with the bunny-ears filter count? No? Right. Just the one, then."

And that one is 24-year-old Dutch supermodel Bregje Heinen, who divides her time between swimsuit shoots in the Maldives, Mauritius and Brazil, walking the runway for Victoria's Secret, Prada and Topshop, and spending time at the canvas.


Still, it's perhaps no shock that Heinen - who lives in Brooklyn with her three bulldogs and boasts an Instagram following of half a million, with no shortage of shots where she isn't dressed for the weather - is used to making her own entertainment, having grown up in a small town called Borculo, with a population just shy of 7,000.


"There are two bars and not much else to do," says Heinen, "but I have the best memories from my childhood. When I grew up, I thought it was boring, but now looking back, it's so nice. Everyone knows each other."


And now, everyone else knows Bregje, too.

How to Be a Filmmaker



Making films is a creative and fun endeavor. Filmmakers are responsible for nearly every aspect of the movie, from the script to the sound effects. Enroll in film school or take some classes to learn about your craft. You should also join a film crew to gain experience and meet others in the industry. When it comes time to make your own film, you’ll need to create a film crew of your own.


Take a film class or enroll in film school. Not only will you learn a lot about the craft, but you will also make connections with others that are interested in making movies. You may even be able to find work on a film crew through your classmates or professors.
Many community colleges offer courses in film that you could sign up for if you aren’t ready to enroll in film school.


Study a related field. People on film crews sometimes have varied backgrounds, such as in writing, theatre, or art. Consider taking classes in these subjects to broaden your knowledge and prepare you for becoming a filmmaker.


Research films. You should watch a variety of movies to get ideas and tips for your own film. Choose movies from different genres and different eras. Pay attention to details such as:
What do you like about a film?
What makes a movie believable?
What makes a strong character?
How are props used successfully?
How does the location impact or enhance the film?

Find out what’s going on in the industry. It is important to keep your knowledge current regarding the market. Find out news and trends about the film industry so that you know what you’re up against.


Network. Meeting other people in the industry can help you out tremendously. Follow leaders in the filmmaking biz on social media, and attend filmmaking and movie events as often as you can.


Find a mentor. Speak to someone who has experience with filmmaking. Ask them what tips or tricks they have for you. Ask to tag along when they shoot one of their own movies so you can see firsthand what works and what doesn’t.
You may be able to find a mentor in film school. Ask a classmate who has experience or one of your professors to mentor you. Alternatively, once you gain experience on a film crew, you may be able to find a mentor through your work.
