<p>In doing a bit more research I have found out exactly what it is that I want to do. I recently received an internship to write and direct a commercial advertisement. It was amazing, and I want to continue doing this. I have a heavy background with writing which is why my original major was English. However, there came a point where I wanted to get away from literature and write- but not just anything, specifically, non-fiction or scripts. I was recommended to major in creative writing or communications. And in taking an advertisement course and a consumer behavior course at SC I have decided that I would like to purse that as my career. I was recommended to major in creative writing or communications. I was also recommended film, but for some reason didn't put much thought into that, because all I could think of was my mother's voice telling me that it is NOT a good degree. I will get to the point now- I was not so fond of the communications classes because they do not seem as "hands on" as I'd like them to be and now I am thinking of applying for film and t.v. productions as my major with a minor in business marketing, emphasis on advertisement and promotion. What I want to know is if you think this is a good direction or if I am better off with a major in Communications? Can I use my film degree for advertisement/marketing? What possible jobs am I eliminating in replacing Comm with film?</p>
<p>The Cinema school is basically much better than anything else USC has, if you can do the film major emphasizing TV production, with whatever you want on the side, I think that would be fine.</p>
