careers in horror?
Hey guys, I'm a HUGE horror fan and I've dreamed (like everyone else I'm sure) of creating the next big horror movie and taking it to a whole new level. I was just wondering how to go about getting jobs in the horror film industry? What kind of degree would they look for? I know it's different for different jobs like cinematographers and screen writers won't have the same degree, but I would really LOVE to do anything at all in creating horror movies. What are the paths to the horror industry? Thanks in advance!
P.S. Sorry if this thread has been made already, but the search function isn't working for me. :(

So this might sound incredibly ignorant, but I thought that L.A. wasn't the sole epicenter of the film industry (at least not as much as it used to be); I had a professor in college whose screenplay had been purchased by Gina Davis' company and was undergoing rewrites and she made a point in telling us that L.A. was not necessarily the film epicenter... But that was the perspective of just one person. Can you speak to that at all? I'm honestly curious, especially since recently, a lot of films have been inspired by, filmed in, and produced in Boston.
I'd love to drop what I'm doing and go to film school. sigh :rolleyes: I am so envious of people who actually did that and are doing that, which is why I will absolutely support you and Giallo, Rod.
