Is going into Film Production at a 4-year university worth it?

No not as a major. But pick the right school. The film industry is small and takes time to get into. So view school not only in getting skills to learn the craft, but an opportunity to network. That's how my cousin broke into the business and he never finished film school in Chicago. But he and his friend hussled and did everything from low budget horror movies to weddings and quince eras videos (sweet 16 parties in Hispanic culture). Then one day they did a video for George Lopez who then hired them for a gig, which led yo another gig in LA. Now he freelances. One intern where I work many years ago got an in at Fox animation, and took an opportunity to network with Seth MacFarland. Which led to a job there. So its about networking.

finally, You may know the software, but do you know the craft? That takes time and the more you can work with other people with more experience, then you can take those skills to really grow.

One thing about the film business is when you are working non union projects to work up enough experience to join the union, is realize the hours are long. Work hard and impress those around you by being hard working and fun to be around. Leave any egos at the door. Because when you are sending a resume to a producer to work on a crew, the will no someone you worked with, and that person could make ot break you getting work. In other words your reputation follows you. That positive word of mouth from colleagues is what will make someone willing to sponsor you.

Another reason go to school but not necessarily movies is money. If you want to do your own projects and find others that can invest, could consider getting a business degree. No t only is it about managing money, its about raising it.
