I love filmmaking deeply and truly enjoy the entire process of making a film. However, often feel afraid and question whether have the talent, skills, and ability to create a film. I want to know when and how I can gain the confidence to believe in myself as a filmmaker. l'm looking for ways to build that confidence and overcome my doubts.

The only way to build confidence is by gaining experience. Your first few projects are going to be very difficult but as you increase in knowledge and skill you won’t doubt yourself as much.

I once heard somebody say that the best way to combat imposter syndrome is to collect evidence of every accomplishment and achievement you get along the way to fight against self-doubt.

Also, everyone is going to feel this way sometimes. Even professionals who have been doing this for years. So don’t beat yourself up and focus on how to create your projects instead of whether or not you’re good enough to do them.
