Great work! I am really interestted in getting into documentary film making. How did you get started? Any advice?

Great advice, thank you so much! I will be sure to save this and keep in mind! If you don't mind me asking more questions: My background is in Sociology, my partner is in Business and English Literature/Writing. We don't have filming background, nor do we have a camera. 1) Is there a particular affordable camera that you might recommend? 2) Is it pointless to just jump into it and learn as we go, or should we be saving money for documentary workshops or film school? We don't have money for both a camera and lessons, so we are trying prioritize what would be most beneficial at this point. Thanks!
