Hello, Ruby,

This does not seem to be a question.

But I have had experience in the film, writing, and acting industries in both Pittsburgh, PA and LA.
First, choose college courses that will excite you and help you on your path to this type of work. Do you want to write? Do you want to act? Do you want to be behind the camera? What is it you are curious about doing in the film industry?

Once you know, then choose a college where you will get that schooling and that type of help.

I would advise you to start smaller - films are being made all over the US now, and you’ll have more of a chance of getting noticed in a smaller crew in say in North Carolina, than in a huge group in NY or LA. Once you establish a name for yourself, then these huge cities would be more easy for you to break into…..

But take classes and make good friends and stick together. You can do so much more with a good group, than on your own in the film industry.

Hope this helps! Good Luck!
