Is it Worth It? by WM

Well the semester is almost over and even though it seems like so much was accomplished I feel like there is still so much to do. Both internships have been an amazing experience and I can honestly say I somewhat understand what a life in entertainment is like. There is nobody more passionate about their job than those who have a career in entertainment. At first it seemed like all the actors out here were going to suffocate you but once you find the right group of people, this place is fun to be. LA life is kinda hard to explain because while everything is constantly flowing and projects are going at such a fast pace, it still seems like LA is full of laid back cool people. Overall this can’t be compared to a semester or even four years of college because what and how you learn out here is completely different from what you are taught in school. The best advice to give is to be organezized, very social, and write a review on every script or film you ever see. It all starts with a script and without that perfect script nothing else is possible. Of course this program was worth it. Nothing else could prepare you better for a career in entertainment, A class can only teach you so much about film, but it very rarely if ever teaches you how to have a career in film.
