Without a portfolio it will be difficult.

Would recommend joining a local film club, and get a few small projects done. Additionally, volunteer with local church events, or regular city music festivals.

Also, could join the local union intake for the production studios. It will be awful until one gets the base hours completed, but it is a feast or famine kind of work schedule some can tolerate. Fine work if you are still a kid.

Finding stuff online is usually a fools errand these days mostly due to "AI" data mining operations, or outright cons. Best of luck =3

The key, for me, was to get a computer. Once I had that, the world opened up.

It allowed me to "get my hands dirty," and experiment, as well as build a portfolio.

To this day, I have a large amount of public code. It's a habit that I've had, all my adult life.
