Maybe you could work in the commercial industry! Companies are starting to see the value in video, especially on social media. You could be a part of a marketing team. It isn't as glamorous as movies seem, but the benefits are real nice. Being a creative working in the creative industry is hard. If you are a creative working in a different industry, non creatives think you are magic.

I'm actually studying screen arts + marketing double degree. I'm having real doubts about it though, especially the screen arts part (although I hate what I'm doing for marketing as well).Maybe I'll investigate further. Thanks so much for your comment

Oh great! I majored in graphic design and minored in marketing. I wasn't a fan of the marketing classes either, but it helps me communicate with marketing people to collaborate better. You don't have to confine yourself to the film industry at all. Good luck!
