country music television jobs
Advice from America needed, do I need a degree?
Heres my situation, its my dream to be a music video director, a well known one, I live in the UK but I hope to one day live and work in the USA as there’s much more oppurtunity there for me I think.
At the moment I work as a video editor for an independent television company and I make low budget music videos in my spare time.
I spoke to a friend last night who wants to work in the same industry as me, and hes studying for a degree, and he said to me, if your from the UK and your looking to someday find a job in america working in the media industry then the degree is needed in order to give yourself a decent shot.
Its always been my idea that if you have alot of experience in the field then it wouldnt matter if yu had a degree or not.
Id love to hear the opinions of people actually from USA because its your country I hope to make an impression in!
Thanks in advance
It’s much harder to get a working VISA for the US without a degree. Most migrant workers enter using a H class Visa for which you need a bachelors degree or it’s equivilent as a minimum.

By the way I am not American but I worked in the US on an H1B for 3 years.
