[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually know a lot of people who have succeeded in arts fields and am incredulous. I personally am friends with the creative director of a major NYC theater (was into acting as a child); two Hollywood show runners; a Hollywood producer; a NYC theater Director; two Emmy winning TV writers; and two successful working artists. Granted, many of them went to Harvard undergrad and all went to elite schools. But they went for it and are successful at a path I never even knew existed. But you have to be very disciplined, very driven to succeed and very focused on seizing every opportunity. I think having the discipline is the biggest factor in creative professions.[/quote] All the positions you mentioned also require being incredibly well connected to get a foot in the door.[/quote]
