1. Keep your day job. ( or get one ) this is gonna cost you.
2. buy a lot of books on post.
3. buy a digi 002 or similar system and start playing.
4. take some basic courses or find a friend who know protools and learn about the tool.
5. find a post studio in your area that you can intern at nights and weekends.
6. find a couple small indie no budget gigs you can do that require little or no knowledge so you can start practice.
7. IF, after all this you are really still wanting to get into post.....

1. get a real internship and plan on going broke for a while.

After about a year at this you can start doing some indie work on more no and low budget work and start working your chops up....

after that ... well here's hoping for you. It's really tough to break into this wonderful fun filled exciting glamorus business of post. (i'm being facetious )


cheers
