Alongside storytelling, bonding over TV led me to some of my best friends, and even helped me come out (thanks Schitt's Creek!). What most inspires me are shows that make people feel seen and can change minds, all while also making them laugh. Television's impact on me made it clear that it was the career path I wanted to pursue, to pay forward all it's done for me.Brittany EvansCalifornia Institute of the ArtsGraduation Year: 2026Category:AgencyHost Company:Authentic Talent and Literary ManagementFavorite Show:A Different WorldWhat inspired you to seek a career in television?I was inspired to seek a career in television by a representative I met during a career fair at CalArts.

I always knew I wanted to pursue something in the communications realm after this and I was drawn to TV for its plethora of story arcs and plot points. Films are great, but they have a finite ending. I'm a fan of the intricate details, evolution of characters, and mind-blowing cliffhangers that hook you to a TV show until the end, and I want to be one of those inspirations that creates such a feat."Yegor PolakoffChapman UniversityGraduation Year: 2025Category:EditingHost Company:Geiger PostFavorite Show:How To with John WilsonWhat inspired you to seek a career in television?My first glimpse into the industry was actually when I was in 5th grade when I was picked to go on The Ellen DeGeneres Show as a Kid Inventor.

I was also further inspired to seek a career in television by creators such as Ava DuVernay and Linda Yvette Chávez, whose works both focus on authentic and multifaceted portrayals of communities not used to seeing themselves on the screen, and also elevate the very medium they use. Seeing them succeed in telling these narratives motivates me to continue further in my career.

I had respect for TV and loved watching it, but it just didn't give me the same feeling as making a movie. Recently, I had a professor for my TV pilot and drama writing class who worked on many TV shows, some of which I watched growing up, and he instilled in me a real love for creating TV.

I have also always loved TV, and when I realized that people could have careers in television, I knew that I wanted to play some role in bringing those stories to life. They say in film and television "you never work the same day twice" and the prospect of working in an industry that is constantly evolving and full of passionate people excites me every day as I look toward my future career.Benjamine DuranPasadena City CollegeGraduation Year: 2025Category:Foster YouthHost Company:ShondalandFavorite Show:Breaking BadWhat inspired you to seek a career in television?My father inspired me to seek a career in television, he learned English through American television and we would spend most of our time together watching it, discussing it, and enjoying every element of it.

Since then, I have really leaned into the longform medium of television- there is such a special connection the audience can develop with characters over long periods of time. Growing up, I was specifically influenced by British television shows like Sherlock, Doctor Who, and Merlin. These shows and settings in the UK still influence my writing today.

Before streaming took off, I would spend my time watching clips of my favorite TV shows on YouTube, piecing together the storylines as I went. In the absence of easily accessible full episodes and seasons, I got to create as I watched; these characters became active in my mind, and I learned how to craft a story between expansive narrative gaps. Television has always been a part of my life, but it took me learning more about myself and paying attention to the ways in which I interacted with this medium to realize that my passion, creativity, and drive belong in television.Bailey JohnsonUniversity of North Carolina at Chapel HillGraduation Year: 2024Category:Production: Documentary/ Nonfiction/ UnscriptedHost Company:Marwar JunctionFavorite Show:New GirlWhat inspired you to seek a career in television?I have always been drawn to art in all forms.
