Jobs with a Degree in Liberal Studies
This totally depends on your skills and interests.
If you wish to remain in your field, often teaching and academics is the route you need to go. Professional schools such as law, business, and (if you have some science background) medicine certainly accept a great many liberal studies majors. Beyond that, employers are mostly interested in hiring smart people with a good set of skills and the ability to learn and grow. Are you particularly passionate about some field? Can you turn it into a job? I know Classics majors in business and Spanish majors who started their own companies and philosophy majors who are engineers.
Obviously some jobs require special training (engineering, sales, trades,...). Whether you have such training, or have the interest or ability to get the training depends on you.
In my experience, few undergraduate majors really prepare you for the workplace -- even pre-professional majors. Most workplaces require skills you learn on the job. Liberal arts/studies teaches you critical thinking, writing, and communication skills, which you need everywhere. In that sense, a liberal arts major can be better than a pre-professional degree.

"Welcome to McDonalds, would you like an apple pie with that?" But on a more serious note it would most likely be as a stage hand according to my friend, and an Associates would be more desired.

-Depending on your desired goals, an associates is just as effective as a bachelors in regards to the technical aspect of theatre. with a bachelors in theatre history you can teach. Acting is by far the hardest to get a job with any degree, experience and practice are the highest skills in that, you could use acting methods to assist in law enforcment with undercover operations. Hope that helps ya.

Studying film making in school will just give you the basics on a very limited scale. Typically, when you graduate from college or a film school, you still have to start at the bottom of the ladder. This may be getting a low paying job as a Production Assistant on low end video shoots.

One of the most important things you'll need to do is make connections. It's also one of the hardest. I recommend you find a local chapter of the film community and join these organizations. You'll meet others who are enthusiastic about film making and may pick up some jobs there. Be prepared to do some work for free but look at it as continuing education on a real film set. Take every job you can and soon you'll find yourself working. Learn as much as you can about each position.

The kind of jobs you can get with a film degree depends on what you want to do. The degree won't get you any jobs. But it will teach you the basics. The rest is up to you.

There are vast jobs for people in the movie industry and it has created many employment opportunities (even in Canada.) Vancouver, B.C. not so long ago had no movie studios, but they have sprouted up greatly in the past 10 years. Movies have been made in Canada for years, but there were no movie studios until now. Besides Vancouver, B.C., Toronto is the next largest city to produce movies. Why come to Canada? Because it's cheaper to produce a movie here and we also have many of the same scenic land that America has to offer. In all fairness 50% of Americans are hired here and 50% Canadian. The Canadian government gives tax relief to the movie industry because the movie industry rejuvenates a great deal of money for the different provinces. JOBS: Extras Carpenters Electricians Artists Painters Costume designers Make-up Artists Key-grip Lighting grip Gophers ("go for" meals for the actors or crews) Set designers Proof readers (for scripts) Digital designing on computer There are many more jobs, but it depends on what you have to offer. If one has no experience in one thing they could choose to be an extra, a "gopher" just to get their foot in the door. Good luck Marcy

Video store clerk. A film degree is utterly useless. to work in the film business, you have to move to L.A. and work your way through the system. A degree is not necessary to do that.

Well....

There is a lot of jobs to make a movie. I'd say the most important job is the Director, then the creator, and then the actors.
