I know there's a lot so how can I choose the best type of film major for me? I am a senior who is going to go to college next year in community to figure out the programs needed to get to film when I transfer out.

You are discovering your passions. Try different stuff with film, try web designs, keep editing, and discover new interests.

Aaron, there are many film schools where you don't have to choose which major when admitted. It's tough to decide when you don't know much about it. For undergrads, you will study many courses in screenwriting, editing, directing, cinematography, sound etc. After several terms, you may discover which track you want to focus on. Then you can design your program by enrolling in the courses you are interested in.
If you don't know which major to select right now, don't panic. I believe you will discover your path once you get more familiar with films. Good luck!

You're embarking on a thrilling journey! Take some time to discover your passions, whether they lie in creativity, production, or a mix of both. Begin by writing short scripts that you can bring to life yourself, then take the leap and start producing them. If writing is your fancy, consider enrolling in writing and English courses.
Ensure you're well-rounded by completing your fundamental courses in science, math, language, and other general education subjects early on. This broad education will open doors to a variety of topics that might ignite your interest or fuel your passion.
When it comes to selecting a film school, consider both the curriculum and the cost. You might need to apply to several before you find the perfect fit. Remember, the best choice is the one that works for you.
Here's wishing you all the best on your exciting journey!
