Can I get funding for a second degree?

I feel I have made a massive boo boo getting a degree in photography. Photography is still a passion of mine it is just not something I want to pursue a career in. What I do really want to do is work in theatre or film production and I have seen a few degrees I am interested in. One at London School of Speech and Drama and another at Rose Bruford College. The crippling feeling that I have failed at life keeps me up at night, any advice would be much appreciated.

If you have a BA already then a second BA in theatre/film production would not be funded.

Have you looked into getting work in those areas to build your knowledge? Work experience would probably mean you could get a masters in those areas in a few years.

Screenskills and BFI have vacancies and placement adverts available, and most theatres will have information on their websites (or just get in touch with them and ask).
