I graduated a year ago from undergrad and recently decided I want to go into film! I work in a totally different (but lucrative) industry so I'm saving money right now to afford a program in the next 3ish years for screenwriting or directing. But what to do in the meantime? I'm definitely going...
I am both an actor and filmmaker and find that I just can't seem to bring myself to do just one of these things. I find them both extremely fulfilling. However, I have to choose one of these things to go to graduate school for. My undergraduate degree was in something completely unrelated -...

Just wanted to introduce myself, I am currently and have been an Anti-Money laundering consultant for the last 3 years since graduating from a top tier school. I guess my mind has decided enough is enough and I want to pursue my passion of writing/producing.
I've been eyeing USC's Producing and...
