The idea of " break in " is common and a bit flawed. It's not a bank ;) If you can narrow your interest to one department or field, and identify and target people or companies that do that thing, phone calls are a great start. You will have better luck in non-glamor departments; grip / electric is more accessible than camera, art department is more accessible than hair and makeup. If you want to act or direct, that takes a while.
Yes I agree with the above. "Breaking in" is usually a result of several years (or more) of highly focused effort, developing skills, meeting the right people in positions of power (networking), having recognizable talent, and a bit of luck being in the right place at the right time, progressing successfully from one job to the next (hopefully) bigger job, like getting a snowball to roll down hill until it turns into an avalanche.
Become a PA. It's the only way.
What do you want to do, Justin?
What I want to do is producing, I am good at it and have the skills to make a movie and finally figured out how to get money for any type of project.
