Question

Can I have a career in broadcasting as a film studies major?

Answer 1

you'd be better going for a journalism/communications degree. film studies won;t help you at all

Answer 2

Yes and no. To a TV station you may appear to be more interested in film, but they also realize that smaller markets are just career stepping stones anyway. The great thing about the entertainment industry is that you can move from one area to another. Audio, video. film, multimedia, animation, they all have avenues to advance your career in the direction you want. If you want some more info on how this industry works, I suggest reading these:
