In what way do you see yourself ideally working in the entertainment industry? You say that you are creative; in what way - writing scripts, acting, cinematography, what's your flavor?

Is there a college or actors' guild near where you now live that could help you gain experience?

I don't think following your dream is crazy. You have done some research. I don't know what locale is best suited to help you achieve self actualization as you define it.

Keep us posted.
