Hey everybody i just finished my first batch of beer
i bottled it a few days ago but on the bottom of the bottles there is a white film
i was wondering if this was normal or did i do something wrong
please give me some pointers
 
Perfectly normal. It's the yeast eating your priming sugar and flocculating out. When you pour your beer, pour carefully and leave about half an inch on the bottom with the yeast in it.
 
Go get a bottle of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and take a very careful look at the bottom of the bottle. You will see the same stuff. Over time it will compact itself and be less likely to mix itself back into your beer when you pour.
