How does one take their love of music and turn it into a career? People often wait until they have an internship at a company to officially kick start their career in the entertainment industry – but what if you could have a voice in the music before any of that? We’re all music fans first right? Gone are the days where gatekeepers run every aspect of our business and barriers to entry are getting better each day. Do you want to work for your favorite artist? How about starting a fan account that ultimately gets their team’s attention? Do you want to start a record label or at least start working with artists? The possibilities are real and we wanted to showcase people who have done it as students to show you what you could be capable of!
