How do you know that this is what you want to do? Nikosony assumes that you are, at present, an ethusiast, and would therefore have a body of work. If you don't have a body of work, I would suggest:

1) That you couldn't know that you want to be involved in the industry; and
2) Any money spent on courses would be a potential waste of money.

Given your response I would suggest that before you do anything else, you pick up a camera and start to experiment. If you like what you're doing, then invest in educating yourself. Start with a few decent books, then move on to enrolling yourself in courses. Bythis time you'll have a body of work and will be at the stage that Nikosony suggests.
