Getting Jobs in Entertainment question 1156: Can anyone work in entertainment?

If Dog the Bounty Hunter and Snooky can, then I would have to say the answer to that is yes. It depends on what you want to do, but if you have no specific preference, there is something for everyone. The more into a craft/art/skill you target, the more of an education/natural gift/tools you need. But there are plenty of positions that don't require an education, natural gifts, or extensive tools if you just want to be a part of the team that makes the magic happen.

The one thing I will say is that anyone can work in entertainment if they are willing to be located where movies/TV etc., are being made. You can't expect to work in entertainment if you're living in a small village in a third world country and you're not willing to move. That's even extreme. You can live in a small town in the US, and never work in entertainment if you're not willing to relocate. Although, even that may not be entirely true, because I've got to assume that Snooky crawled out from under a rock... to say she was raised in a barn would be an insult to all of the good farmers out there feeding our country. But I think you get the point...
