I work in post production (film and tv) and currently don’t get paid a lot. For anyone else in this industry, how high can the pay go? Wondering if I need to look at a new industry or if I’m able to stay.

Are there any specializations or niches that would lead to better-paying roles? Or management/leadership roles? I’m not in that industry, but those are two things that usually lead to more money.

There’s management stuff but it’s never appealed to me and I don’t even think they’re repaid much more than I am now.

I think it really depends on the role and the location of the job. Higher cost of living areas have higher pay. I would suggest doing your research to see what title you are aiming for.

I’m not even really noticing that currently, I live in London and the cost of living is high and the wages are terrible!

are there any niches you could specialize in within the field?

Not necessarily, I could specialise to grow higher but there’s not a lot of individual niches to get above.
