is majoring in acting really going to help me as an actor? how many Professional film actors have acting degrees? would a minor be a better option? also what schools have acting programs that focus more on film? im sorry to ask so many questions but i want to be an actor and i just need some guidance i don’t want to get BFA and it just have been a waste of my time. any info would be fine BUT, preferablyfrom someone experience
