26, BA, Political Science (stuck with the major, didn’t want to switch).
Should have majored in sociology or film studies / production if I had to do a BA again.

Probably should have done a degree in media design instead.

Etienne

32; B.A. in French literature, M.A. in Modern Languages & Cultural Studies. (Mainly Narratology and Translation.) Teaching Certificate as icing on the cake. Now a happy literature teacher.

If I ever tackle a PhD it’s going to be a narratological analysis of RPGs like Final Fantasy VII…

At 62, I thought I would be the Methuselah of this Forum, but MISTER DOB has me beat by more than a decade, if he’s being truthful about his age! :-)

I keep young by communicating with youthful cineastes on this Web site!

19. Heading to university in the fall, probably will end up with a useful degree in English, but all I want to do is make films.

Sandwiches, you might want to consider going to film school then. I was just thinking yesterday it would be great to go to La Femis. Might have to learn French first.

Me, I’m 27 and I have a Bachelor’s. Been thinking about getting my Master’s ever since I graduated from college, but have never come up with the resources.

Ari

Then take the money you’re going to waste on university and spend it on making a film.

‘Then take the money you’re going to waste on university and spend it on making a film.’

And Kubrick basically said that, so it MUST be done!

Ari

Exactly, and I hope Sandwiches was being ironic when he called a degree in English useful (and I say this as someone with experience in less than useful degrees).

tom

24, art major (lit/music)

I have a good two weeks to find a Masters program…in what? God doesn’t know either.

Christi​ne
