You don't necessarily need to go to college but it's best you find an accomplished video director you can learn from. Having a good video editing skills is good too.

There are many jobs available for video directors and videographers in many countries where media is booming. There are many media channels in my country that tend to hire such kind of folks.

I personally think that video director needs to be creative in terms of directing videos using the technologies and can also capture the possible viewers of his or her movies. It would be a big challenge to be one.

Most of these persons who act as video directors or movie directors are usually the ones who studied theater arts. You also need to have some creative skills as well.
