maybe you could see if your school offers tech classes in CAD..or maybe digital imaging?

Sixteen is a little young to decide what you'll do with your life. Maybe take it a year at a time. Try them all and see what sticks.

Mate dont put yourself under pressure. my career did not present itself until i was 25, although i always had a job, as you should. Dont get all cuaght up in life planning, you are alive for a long time, you are a human being not a human doing, so 'be' for a while and 'do' when it happens. As long as you pay your way it doesnt matter what you do at this stage, as long as you dont get stuck in a dead end job. Practical advice? I would go do a broad performing arts course at college where you get to learn all of what you wrote. Your eventual path will present itself quite naturally as you experience them all through learning. You will then be able to make an informed choice instead of a 'guess' choice which is what you seem to be doing now

Get youself into a performing arts college as soon as u can buddy, you'll be able to try out them all until you find which fits the best. Just dont put it off, it takes suprising little time to go from 16 to 30 & then its too late to try something like that.

I understand why you think its so important to make that choice now but the others are right take your time try them all and whatever your best at youll fall into, just try to convince the pushy old schoolers in your circle that your working and know thats all they really want from you
-
Once you get out and working for a living, you'll find what you DON'T want to do.
-
If you are 16 and a true talent has not yet emerged, go to college after high school so that you may have a career. You may like the arts, but if you were truly talented you would already know in which artistic direction to proceed.

Sounds like you answered your own question. Do it all. And 16 is not too young to be thinking about what you want to do with your life. Good for you.
