Volunteering. While volunteering isn’t always popular, it comes with multiple benefits for people looking to get more experience. Projects done while volunteering can be added to resumes as work experiences. It’s also possible to use it to develop skills and a network of contacts.
Studying. Going to Film School or using Workshops are popular ways to get more experience. Film Schools generally offer technical and practical experience. Workshops are generally centered on the basic aspects of film or of a certain topic. Books & DVDs are also available to complete or add to your knowledge. Guest speaking events offers the ability to get insight into film.
Starting your own projects. When some people can’t get work, they create their own, often by becoming freelancers and looking for projects or by brining their own projects to reality. It can develop experience, skills, and knowledge while also adding to the resume.

Everyone has to work for credit when they start otherwise you never get anywhere
The trick i think isn’t to see it as working for free because you’re not working for free. you’re building your resume, making contact, hopefully getting free food etc..
