Thanks man, I'll keep it in mind.
I want to start shooting my first short in the next month or so. My friend I was talking about is only a freshman (although she does have some film experience from high school) and since we're both interested in the same stuff and both just trying to learn right now, I might invite her on as a co-director, producer, DP type thing. Basically we would just split nearly all of the duties on this project and learn together and from each other... assuming she does in fact want in (we discussed this possibility awhile ago, just haven't got to the part where we actually do it yet lol)
Anyway, when this small project does get going, I'm sure I'll be looking for some actors and helpers. I'll let you know. I really never worked on anything else, but if you need any services I have to offer, I'm always available.
