What do you study in college if you want to be a casting director?

Question

Does it pay well and is it fairly easy to be one, like what do you have to do to get a job somewhere?

Answer 1

Subjects to consider are theatre, art, music, psychology, sociology. I'm not really sure on what it takes to be a casting director, but you can try to talk to some professors in the theatre or music department or the school's counseling center regarding this.

Answer 2

Theatre, business, psychology are good courses to take.

During college you will need to intern for a casting director.

(Probably UCLA or USC are you best bets for schools)
