It seems like an odd question but for 4-5 years now. I have been really interested in going into the entertainment business. But the thing is, I don't know exactly what profession it is that I want to go for.
At first it was acting. I really want to get into acting but the problem is that my parents don't encourage or support me. They think that the only reason I want to do it, is for Hollywood fame which is bad. I agree that it's a dangerous and secular thing to get into. But I'm not for the fame. I want to do acting because it's something that I managed to work hard for to achieve the potential to actually act. And it would be a career I would love doing. But it's a very competitive and hard job to break into.
Then I thought about film. Directing, screen writing, editing, etc. Since I was 13, I have always wanted to create movies...or be in them. It's been a dream for me as well. All my dreams have relations with film and entertainment. But it's a job that I think I wouldn't have the ability to do.
My last job that I'm interested in is Sound Editing for films. Ever since Transformers (2007) I have been interested in creating sound effects and editing them. It was an entirely new to me but I thought it was fascinating.
I'm just having a hard time choosing the best path for me. I'm a junior in High School now and I feel like time is short. And before I know it, I'll be graduating already. Should I go into the entertainment business? And what is it that I have to be alert of or be prepared of?
All I know is that there's a lot of:
Rejection
Competition
Motivation
Hard Work
and never giving up.
