Working in the Industry
Would you like to work in the industry, but don't know where to start?
There are many entry points to work in the field, and our members come from backgrounds as diverse as film, accounting, and architecture.
That's why the Guild's team conducted several meetings in 2021 with graduates of various college and university programs to talk to them about job opportunities in the industry.
