An increasing access to widespread technologies has led to more people being able to make movies of their own, including young people and individuals from marginalized communities. These people may have little to no technical or academic training, but instead are self-titled "filmmakers." Aspiring filmmakers can range from those simply with access to a smartphone or digital camera, to those who write "spec" scripts (to pitch to studios), actively network, and use crowdsourcing and other financing to get their films professionally produced. Oftentimes, aspiring filmmakers have other day-jobs to support themselves financially while they pitch their scripts and ideas to independent film production companies, talent agents, and wealthy investors. New York City is a major resource for people pursuing filmmaking as a career. There are universities like NYU in New York, USA, which is considered to have one of the best film programs in the country, second only to USC in Los Angeles.
