Youtube accounts
Discussing film effects, stunts and technical filmmaking- this channel is both fun and informative
They do great videos on genre and film techniques
when they do a '10 ten action movies' video, its not just a countdown, each position is used to cover a subgenre or element of the genre that makes it effective.
Patrick Willems (and his other channel)
Film criticism that is accessible and interesting
he also pastiches filmmakers and genres- such as 'If the X Men was directed by Wes Anderson' which is brilliant
His later film criticism is often shot in the style of the director, or in the style of a specific genre, which can help you recognise the repertoire of elements within that genre.
Guides to film roles and techniques, nice short and informative videos to help you with your cinematography, editing, directing, screenwriting and sound design (amongst other things).
They also review tech that the school cannot afford.
This channel explains all aspects of filmmaking... And try to sell you their software, but the videos are great.
Crash course are designed to be accessible learning, so they are a great place to start your film education. Short and very informative videos- a great resource! They quote books to save you from reading them too!
Wisecrack uses philosphy and critical theory to examine films (and other media)- so it's great for ideology such as this one on Starship Troopers where they show how the film turns us all into fascists when we watch it. They also have 'deep or dumb' and 'why it didn't work' which are very interesting series
