How can I get into television production?

Answer 1

Get a job in a factory that manufacture TV sets

Answer 2

After spending my career in the Televison and Film Industries as a Sound Engineer my advice is to specialize in an area of your choosing and then proceed to intern at your local television station while earning a degree in Communications to give you a general background as you develop you specific trade. There are many opportunities within the Television Industry from marketing to On-Camera Personality to Procuction Design to Editing to going out in the field as a Sound Engineer or Camera Operator to Directing.

Get involved in whatever way you can at this point to see just where it is you feel most comfortable and which your skills and talent fit the best.

Best Advice: Never take "NO!" as an answer and "NEVER GIVE UP!" If the door doesn't open at first come back and kick it down! Aim as high as you can and with hard work and focus you will achieve your goals!

Answer 3

If your still in school or college i would take a production class. We had journalism and a Film Production class at the high school i went to! lots of fun. Ask around your town or look up colleges on the net and see what you can come up with. I think to get into tv production you do have to have some college classes on some kind of film or like TV production Because a friend of mine went to school for that. and it can be really tough! GOOD LUCK to you.

Every field of work needs people that are energetic, have good follow-through on projects and can keep thier schedule. Do some local searching to find out what is going on with television production near you, identify people working in the field and contact them all to tell them that you are interested in what they do and are trying to find an entry level position.

Answer 6

Study communications at the college level. If you are still in school, there are intern programs at many stations. Give them a call about their intern programs and also ask the same question you asked us. You can also email or write a brief letter expressing you interest to a station. Good luck.

Answer 7

Visit you local TV station (s) and ask to speak to the producer. Should he or she not be available then make an appointment. This would be an informational interview where you would ask him/her 6-7 questions about their position. Make sure you ask them about internships at the station. Typically most interns are college students who are pursuing a degree in broadcast communications.
