What options in media or film can I do when only doing 4 years of college?

I'm curious about what kind of jobs in media or film I can do after college. I don't want to do extra classes in college, only doing 4 years. Is it possible? If so, are there many in SF?

I'm currently a junior in high school who is an aspiring aerospace engineer. I'm aware that we are becoming more and more dependent on AI each day, but I am interested in learning how this will become prevalent/how it might impact jobs by the time I'm out of college and job hunting.

How do I get into existentialism/absurdism in film?

Earlier I was asking how to sink myself into the world of film history. As time went on, I became interested in the world of absurdism/existentialism after reading Albert Camus' The Stranger and Franz Kafka. How do I learn more about these theories specifically in film?
