      So happy for the #PayUpHollywood stories. The low pay is absolutely the main way that people from wealthy families make it hollywood. Almost everyone I knew in the early days had their parents paying their rents and massive subsidizing their income. It was the barrier of entry.

      So much of it ties into the wealth at local universities, too. Combined with the days of no-pay internships (not that the pay now is livable). A few of us even used to play the game "what do the interns drive?" Then answers always ranged from mercedes to maseratis.

      My parents were high school teachers. They gave me everything they had for film school, but it was nothing in comparison to what was around me. People like to use this kind of thing to justify "bootstraps" bullshit, but the only reason I survived those early days?

      It wasn't my "hard work" and "gumption," those are givens. Horribly, the answer was a bit of poker and the fact my great aunt left me a few grand that allowed me to survive the early brutal job searches. A few grand was all it took. That's it. And it was pure luck.

          This is so true. This is why people from less wealthy backgrounds who want to be in the arts end up in the technical trades while more wealthy people end up in the “creative” jobs. When I applied for the lighting union I was straight up told “they’ll never see you as a writer”

          The blue collar/white collar divide is more strongly enforced in film/arts than anywhere else I’ve worked (I’ve been in retail sales and the building trades). “Creatives” don’t even seem to hang out with “crew”. No one I’ve ever even heard of has worked up from crew to creative.
