I love programming and I love film. For a school project, I am to present my future career. I definitely know my future career will involve computer science but since I also have a passion for film, I don't want to lose that passion. So I was wondering if there is a career out there that involves Comp Sci and film and if there is, what is it?
You mean besides Computer Animation? Video editing, cgi graphics, human interface design, maybe drm writer.<p>What do you love about film? Why do you like your favorite flick? What do you love About computer science? What makes you passionate?<p>Find the link.
If I can extend your love of film to mean non-celluloid, digital content DELIVERY of movies and TV programs then consider video encoding / streaming media as a career. I work for a major Canadian Telecommunications firm and we have ONE encoding genius and we have been trying to find another person with his skills - and there are NONE in Canada that are looking for work.

I'm the same; I love both. I think there are definitely some exciting areas to explore. You're in a lucky position.<p>Have you seen the NoSQL Tapes? (<a href="http://nosqltapes.com" rel="nofollow">http://nosqltapes.com</a>) I think there's a dearth of exciting and provocative technical interviews with industry giants. I would subscribe to (and pay for) a channel that brought me great, high-quality interviews with people like Alan Kay, Rich Hickey, etc. A sort of Lambda-The-Ultimate video series. Or even an HN video series. The world is your oyster!
