Industry Description
So you want to be in the movies? For more than a decade, the study of film has been one of the fastest growing disciplines at American colleges and universities. You don’t have to go to Hollywood to live your dream; you can choose from movie schools spread right across the USA. For those with a passion for film, a degree in film studies can be the right first step for an exciting, rewarding future in TV or the movies.
The choice of careers in the movies is enormous, embracing photography, computer technology, cinematography, journalism and PR. You might want to work in the thick of technical post-production, realize your vision through cinematography or work in publicity.
Movie schools offer film production and film studies courses, with classes in Film Production, Film Studies, Screenwriting or Film Marketing. Classes might cover experimental cinema, and world cinema, as well as an array of courses that examine the films of individual directors, such as Ingmar Bergman or Alfred Hitchcock.
Film and photography courses combine photography, filmmaking, and video-making. Many post-production artists are film school graduates that either specialized in coursework related to one particular area, or are people who were brought into apprenticeship programs through friends.
Cinematography deals in the collaborative process of translating screenplays and treatments into meaningful and stimulating film and TV programs and is yet another fascinating area in the exciting and challenging options available in movie schools. Possible careers include film, television, the visual arts, photojournalism and advertising.
