Do I have to go to grad school or even college to work in the Entertainment Industry?

The short answer is no. If you had asked this question 10 years ago it would truly be no. But in 2015 more people are getting degrees in film, plain and simple.

Film School: AFI or FSU?

I applied to several graduate programs. The majority of them were MFA Film or Writing programs, some were MA Film programs and some were MA Creative Writing programs. What’s the difference in those degrees, you ask?

Ok… You got me. I’m a writer who doesn’t write.

I was that kid, sitting in my 3rd-grade class, learning about descriptive writing and eating it all up. After reading my first descriptive story, my teacher Mrs. Jones told me I should be a writer. Great! At 8 years old, I totally knew what profession I’d be going into.
