I am a member of the international photographers who shoot most films. I have been doing it for a whole lot of years and my experience got me in. It wasn't in LA, but in the UK and Canada.
You are in a Catch 22 situation starting out. But then again we all were. Cream floats and you might need to shoot some student films, cheezy commercials, youtube stuff. You need something to show someone you can actually do the job and have the potential to be good someday. It sounds overwhelming, but the way I look at it is someone's gotta do it, it may as well be you.
