Hey! Well, first off, you need to go to film school!. Although people say that you don't need a degree to prosper in the field, having a solid film background boosts you ahead of the many others trying to make a future in the industry!.

Now, there are myriad film schools, but going to one in the elite tier can help you gain stronger connections, and come into the field with the best knowledge!. These schools include Tisch at NYU, UCLA's film school, USC's film school, Vassar's film program, etc!.

If you are looking at producing, then you can stick with a film major!. However, if you are looking at the financial aspects of it, and want to solely focus on managing a company, then you may want to double with business as well!.

A heads up!. This field is ridiculously competitive, and most struggle to build their way up to their "dream" positions!. So, with that in mind, you need to be ready to take risks!.

Above everything, just be uber creative!. Creativity is the essence of everything done in movies!. And, you've gotta be a good storyteller!. Stories= the foundation of it all!.

I hope this helped!.!.!.good luck!. Remember!.!.!.it's a tough field!. You've got to keep your head in the whole time, and just keep trying!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
