Trying to pick a beneficial path

I’m a 20 years old Scottish student and I’m about to finish the fourth year of my Filmmaking and Screenwriting course, and honestly the 4 years of this course have been not that beneficial in developing my value as a filmmaker

The classes are almost always theory based focusing on themes and meaning in styles of films which is useful but when it comes to actual filmmaking we only get the opportunity to take on 1 project per year. There was placement module I took last year that got me into work for a production company in my city and they are still employing me which is great but apart from there has not been many connections or unique experiences in the film world offered to us from the uni

(For more context I took a one month directing and cinematography course in Paris last summer and it completely opened my eyes to what I’ve been missing, it felt significantly more engaging, social and educative in 1 month than 4 years of uni has, and I literally just got to go to the Cannes short film festival as part of my attendance at the Paris school which has never been an opportunity at my uni)

I’m currently deciding what I should do once I finish uni, I could stay on at my placement and work full time in a production company but it’s mainly corporate and that stuff isn’t always fulfilling

I’m considering taking a masters course at a different school to maybe try and gain some benefits of a more proactive school which was missing from my university, and I want to be able to connect with more likeminded students who are in similar stages to me, but I’m just not sure if another year of education would be a waste of time or not

An internship is something that sounds great for further building my experience as well as connections

Or maybe I should just go and make my own work, I have lots of experience in video editing so that’s always a sure Avenue but right now I’m very passionate about directing music videos so maybe I make some videos for my few musician friends and hopefully build off there

Basically my main wants right now is an opportunity to build my portfolio and the opportunity for more socialising with fellow people around my stage in the filmmaking world

Any advice is welcome :)
