Professions to be desired

What profession do you admire most and why?

Daily writing prompt

Many professions are essential because if no one doesn’t clean or take care of the elderly, for example, nothing would be done. I admire a lot of professions, people who save lives and even garbage people. They do a job I could never do. I get anxious when I see people in pain, and I don’t like touching people. I’m not made to do a profession like that. I admire people who do those jobs, though.

A profession I admire the most is actors and actresses. Acting is a tough job. They can play roles where they need to do things I could never do, like doing love scenes and such. They also need to be brave, and I admire people that are. It doesn’t need to be in a profession. Actors and actresses can play different kinds of people. They can play other characters and try different jobs without going to school to become them. Becoming an actor is also quite tricky. They don’t give up; even if they struggle, they won’t give up their dream. They might need a talisman if they want to be successful. It’s a competitive business, and not everyone will become big stars. Actors and actresses aren’t fairly treated in recent years, with being paid relatively and getting compensation from streaming services. They’re also afraid of getting replaced by Artificial intelligence. That’s why the strike is going on at the moment. In my opinion, actors and actresses won’t be replaced by AI because acting still needs to be done by real people. Watching movies and TV series wouldn’t be the same as now. Humans should never be replaced by robots in any profession.

Jobs to do for day

What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?

Words that came up when I thought about what I wanted to be were; pro photographer. Especially a Formula One photographer. I was a big fan of it for about 13 years. My interests have changed since then. I realised it would take years to become a pro. I didn’t want to wait that long. If there is a job I would like to be for one day, it would be a Formula One photographer. Doing sports photography isn’t easy, though. They are fast and trying to capture it; you must know how to photograph them, and I don’t.

Another job I would like to try for one day is to be on a movie set. I wouldn’t mind what job it would be. I would like to try several ones. It would be nice to follow personal assistant to actors. I wouldn’t want to do the job except if it is to keep the company of an actor or actress. But I don’t think there is a job like that. I study filmmaking, but it won’t get me a career in the movie industry. But it’s an exciting subject, which is why I am learning it.

It would be nice to try to be something I have studied for, but getting job experience in the graphic design field is under a rock. I would do it full-time and not only for a day. I guess I must live in a dream world because reality doesn’t want me to be in it.

Pinch of criticism about the Oscars

If you didn’t know, the Oscars awards were last night. I didn’t watch it because I think it’s a waste of time to stay up that late. Actually, I’m not interested in the Academy Awards that much. I saw it once when Lord of the rings was nominated, and they won too. The nominations have become a little weird. There are movies I’ve never heard of. The film that should be nominated isn’t. It only gets stranger each year. I wonder if there are only old farts that choose who gets nominated. A pinch of criticism about the Oscars here.

Some of the movies you can’t even watch in the theatre. Not everyone wants to pay for Netflix. I already have Disney Plus. It’s not that I would watch the movies, but only saying movies like that shouldn’t be nominated in an award show like The Oscars. Short films are different. They can only be shown on streaming services. I always wondered why movie series never get nominated for the big awards. They might belong to a series, but they are still different movies. They usually win special effects or awards like that. I don’t think it’s right, but that’s how the Academy works. Lord of the rings is the only movie that won Best movie. It seems trilogies are poison for the Academy. I feel a little sorry for the actors who won’t get nominated because they are in these movies. Then again, they don’t become actors for the awards. The Oscars are only one among other award shows, so it’s not the end of the world if “wrong” movies or actors get nominated. It’s only a Hollywood thing, to show off your party dress. That’s probably a big part of why people watch the award show. I don’t care about that. I care about watching movies and not the glamour that goes with the filmmaking folks.
