Default filmmaker

So i guess i'm an aspiring filmaker of some sort.
I have friends going to school for film, That have all the right equipment, and their willing to make a movie if I can bring it all together.

In other words,

right the script, find locations, and maybe act.

So i'm currently writing a script that involves a group of bank robbers (present day)

My problem is, How do i film in a bank? We no way have the money to build our own set.

Is there any banks that could possible let us film?

Find an empty bank branch that has shut down or not opened yet. Call the realtor and see what it would cost to rent it for a week.

My guess would be that you would have trouble finding a bank willing to do this. But it doesn't hurt to ask. So just start going to banks and talking to the managers. Maybe you'll find a smaller, local bank willing, rather than a branch of a national bank. You'll probably have to provide extra security during your shoots and possibly comply with other stipulations.

Good luck when you try and 'right' the script if you can't even spell that word correctly.

I can type 101 words per minute, but they're in my own language.

Don't make your first film about a bank robbery. Period. Make the bank robbery movie on somebody else's dime after you've proven yourself.
