<p>hello all. I graduated BGSU this past Dec with an education degree, however over the past couple years I have truly doubted my passion for it. </p>

<p>Turns out I truly don't think I belong in education. Something I have always been passionate about is entertainment and movies/editing/etc. Back in HS my friends and I did it and I don't know why I didn't pursue then. I regret this now. </p>

<p>Anyways! Here are my questions. I truly want to get into the entertainment business somehow. What would work best? Going back to school for an undergrad? some graduate school? just try getting a job anyways ( entertainmentcareers.net or something like that?) or is the field just way too open?</p>

<p>I just would like some feedback. i have tried to keep in touch my BG's grad student job help but they aren't really paying off. I still don't have a decent job and just want to be doing something better with my time. However I feel I am stuck in a very uncreative area of Ohio.</p>

<p>Thanks for anything everyone!</p>

<p>Also, I don’t really know how the whole going back to school thing works. Like if it isnt for graduate school. I have been looking at film editing schools/etc. Or just something in entertainment.</p>

<p>Look for noncredit continuing education classes at local colleges. They should be cheaper than a credit program.</p>

<p>Some schools offer certificate programs. They may or may not be useful. Be wary.</p>

<p>Also, sometimes community organizations offer these kinds of courses. Look for one that specializes in film and video…making them, showing them, supporting people who make them. If there is a membership organization for film and video makers, check it out.</p>

<p>Is there a way to combine your education education with a specialty in media studies (teaching people to make films) or in online learning course development?</p>
