How to decide between a major in film or finance?
I'm torn because my film teacher said that you don't need a degree to work in film, but isn't that the same with accounting? My true career goal is to become a film director, but I can't practice anything without equipment -equipment is expensive and from what I know accounting pays pretty well if you know what you're doing. I'm interested in both, but don't know what I should major in - and what I should minor in.

How can I make my first step into film?
I been in video production since freshmen year, only missing one year as my new school didn't tell me it had a CTAE class about film. (I'm a senior this year) Despite all this, I wish I had more experience. I bought a camera off of eBay (SonyA100) so I can get more personal experience with cameras. Yet I feel like I'm not doing enough. What was one of the first things you did as a stepping stone for going into the film industry?

FlushingIs it harder to become an actor/actress as an adult?
I know there's a lot of casting companies who come around for children or teenagers to be in commercials and start off acting that way. But I am almost 17 and I can't afford to go to the acting programs offered for me. So my question is, is it harder for opportunities like this as you reach age 18? I really enjoy acting and want to do it for a living but I also understand that it's not a secure job choice. #acting #act #film-acting #theatre #theater #short-films #films
