So, I want to make my own ballet but don't know where to start. Should I start completely from scratch on find a movie that hasn't been made into a ballet yet?

Hello @thedancer2000 Ballet Alert! is primarily an audience site, but perhaps someone here can guide in the right direction for learning to make ballets.

Generally, choreographers either have a commission, are making work for a specific need -- for a class of students, a choreography class, or for their company -- or they have a need to make work and an idea that drives them.

Choreography is a craft, and starting small and building until you learn it are the first steps before creating a ballet based on a large scale story.  Learning to tell a story through movement is something that the most experienced living choreographers spend years to master, and they have dancers to work on.
