Making $7000 in 5 months when your 13

Question

Hello ,

I am Thirteen and i have set a goal to make around $6500 to $7000 by Feb 09. The reason i want to get so much money is because i am a filmmaker and if you are a filmmaker then you know about that list called "Stuff to buy" From film teachers of mine and other info i have come to the conclusion that every filmmaker has one of these lists. My list should be about $6200 so i am shooting for about $6700 to be in the safe zone for tax's and shipping. So far what i have done is i have started to sell stock footage on a place called "RevoStock.com ™" a website one of my film teachers told me about. i should make about $20 every time someone buys one of my stock footage clips. The good thing is i know it's not a scam because my teacher that told me about the site is also on there and has mad money off there (once during Class). I was think of setting up a Cafepress™ store but graphic design is my sisters thing mine , is film. i am a homeschool student so i have lot's of free time on my hands so filming stock footage shouldn't be a big deal. I own a Canon HV20 ™ and a DIY 35mm adapter i made so i am good on optics for my stock footage. If you where wondering yes a new camera is on my list it's the RED Scarlet coming out in 2009. I want it for mainly Manual functions , 2/3 CMOS Sensor , manual set iris , and 3x res.

Any extra ideas that could help me on making money would be great.

This sounds like scam-spam

Answer 2

If your jibs are good quality, you might be able to sell them for much more.  A client of mine has a jib company, and he paid $15,000 for his jib.  Send me some photos, and I might be able to find you some customers.

I wish you luck.  You seem to be very ambitious, and I hope you never lose sight of your dreams.

I'm 26, and I wish **I** knew how to make that kind of extra cash.  Have a fundraiser, an auction... Think of goods and services people could donate that people you know would want to "bid" on.
