STEM jobs can be an adventure, especially in the entertainment industry, where every day is a new experience.

If you go to the movies and are more interested in how the visual effects were done or the stunts performed than the story unfolding on the screen, you may be a good candidate for a STEM entertainment career. Check out these five STEM jobs in the entertainment industry!

1. Documentary Film Crew Member

A member of a film crew can work in a variety of departments including location, production, sound, or camera on a documentary that could feature rare animals, famous people, or world events. The jobs needed to make a non-fiction film are open to those interested in real-world adventure with the STEM skills required. A college degree is not required for this career in the entertainment industry, but students interested in learning all that they can about documentaries have several options. A four-year Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in film making/producing can be earned at the New York Film Academy, or a six-month course at the Documentary Center at George Washington University teaches the basics of production. Companies hire all types of film crew members and salaries range from $10 per hour to $70,000 per year, depending on the entertainment industry job and the project.
