Dive Schools question by cherryblossy: Are film schools worth my time and money?
I’m an aspiring filmmaker, only 17, and next year I hope to attend the International Film School Sydney (assuming I’ll get accepted). But are film schools really worth it? Should I just dive straight into it instead?

It’s a lot harder for an Australian, seeing as how the resources are very limited in comparison to, say, the US.

Dive Schools best answer:

Answer by Nyx
Not really. A film degree doesn’t get anyone anywhere. In Hollywood its about connections and talent, not degrees, its one of the few fields where you don’t need a degree to be successful. What happens when you don’t make it in the film industry? Its handy to have a practical degree. So learn about filmmaking, dive into it, just don’t get a 4 year degree in it.
Why don’t you make it a minor in college instead?
