I dream of having a job in the music or movie industry. I am wondering what jobs involve coming up with movie or cd covers. Also what education I would need for that. I would also like to know what jobs involve picking songs out for movie soundtracks. Please do not say a composer, because not all movies use composers. For instance, Garden State used separate artists’ music. Also what other jobs are there besides a model, actor, singer, writer, director, or producer?
I am a 23 year old Penn State grad. I have been out of school for two years. I have had 4 jobs, none of which were in my chosen field. I look online and in the paper every day for a new, better paying job, but I have just about given up. Either I don’t have the right degree, I don’t have job experience, or the pay is too low and I am overqualified. I have to pay a ton of bills, incuding student loans. I feel like I wasted tens of thousands of dollars on an education that got me nowhere. I live in Pittsburgh, where the job market is not that good to begin with. Is there anyone else that is struggling with finding a decent job because no one will give them a chance? Any tips for someone that is trying so hard, but not getting anywhere? How did you get the job that got you on your feet? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
