Reflection on Working in the Media Industry


well, my plan was to finish college and attend university and later on I would find a fixed job. I knew about working in the media industry, some people worked as a freelancer but I didn't know that it was such a big percentage of people that are basically obliged to find their own temporarily jobs. I prefer to work in a company where I know that I have time for myself and time for work separately. I came to a conclusion where I might change my course or find a job that is permanent. I really don't think being a freelancer suits me because, from my point of view, it messes up the persons life in a way where you won't have time for yourself and if you are not good enough to communicate with people and good enough with what you do, there is going to be a lot of competition between you and all the other people that work as a freelancer in the media industry. in addition, working with colleagues, having your own office, having time for yourself and knowing that at the end of every month you have a salary is always better (from my POV). Today I found out that working with the VFX I can get a permanent job and make of it a good living; so I might stay in media and try my best to join the VFX working as a visual effect artist. I talked to Rob and got to know that working with VFX I have to be a very dedicated and patient person when working because everything needs perfection and details, needs to be reviewed. 

Visual effects (abbreviated VFX) is the process by which imagery is created or manipulated outside the context of a live action shot in film makingVFX is extensively used in Bollywood & Hollywood to create awesome effects & realistic environments. Through visual effects, you can make interesting things happen in movies - bomb blasts, natural disasters, flying objects, superpowers, etc. - that are difficult or impossible to shoot in real life.

to become a VFX artist I need to get a bachelor's degree. I also searched that it is possible to become a VFX artist without a college degree, but the path is often easier with one. VFX artists usually major in fine arts, computer graphics, or animation. It would be good to choose a college with a reputation for strength in these areas and a reputation for good job placement for graduates. Since my course in college is Media I might have to change what I want to do in University to be able to be a VFX artist.
Special effects are illusions or visual tricks used in the film, television, theatre, video game and simulator industries to simulate the imagined events in a story or virtual world. An optical effect might be used to place actors or sets against a different background.
