Wanna be, but can I be?

I LOVE music. I've played the Viola for about 5 years now, and I can see music in my future. I want to be a conductor, but not just any conductor, I want to conduct or write music for movies. I listen to soundtracks, and am blown away by them. I want to be a part of that, whether it's writing, playing or conducting. Is that an easy job to get? should I lower my standards? or is there maybe something I don't know? Thanks for any help!

    Well im no career specialist in music or anything, but I think even by just starting off low you can move up in your career to do what you want to do! the most experience u can get anywhere in conducting and writing will work your way towards the big screen!

    You go for it!!!

    If you want to do it - don't lower your expectations or standards!!

    Try getting involved in musical theatres, orchestras, record yourself playing and put it on utube or your blog space.

    Talk to conductors and ask how they got involved and what they had to do.

    All the best :)

    you should not even consider lowering your standards. I admire your enthusiasm. I am studying guitar and I really get motivated whenever I see enthusiasm such as yours. I have a fair amount of my own enthusiasm, but when I see it in someone else it just winds me up. Keep it up, and the best of luck!!

    if you are really dedicated, i'm sure that you can get up to that. you will need a lot of education and practice.

    anything can happen if you work hard enough.
