Actor
Actress
Producer
Director
Assistant
Crew member
Special effects
Make up
Promotion/PR
Costume design/Wardrobe
Sound
Etc, etc, etc.

Where do you see yourself working?
Me: I would be one of those 'behind the scenes' crew members.
Maybe working on helping with building sets.

Or I think a really cool job would be helping with props.
I also like the idea of helping with those things in the background of a set that make it look more real.
Like plants in a windowsill of a kitchen with utensils on the counter or magazines on a table in the living room with diplomas or family pics on the wall.
Or toys stacked on shelves in a children's room etc.
Little things like that.

What would you want to do?

None of the others even count if the director overrules it. The director is literally the deity of the movie. A director can even rewrite what he wants if he has the real directorial power.

Something that has to do with film restoration or keeper of the vaults. It'd be amazing to go through the films that even just one studio has. You might even come across a film that was considered "lost".

[First line] I forgot the opening line.
