The Film Career Track: Director

Once you complete Level 5 of the career path you are given the choice for which specialized branch of the career you want to choose -- either Actor or Director.  If you choose Director you will then have the opportunity for the following promotions to master the career track:

-- Director Perks --

Directors basically obtain the same Level bonus for entry to clubs as do the Actors, and they also ride in their limo to work and travel at Level 7.   Unlike the Actor path though, they get the ability to write screenplays at Level 8, which provides them with an extra opportunity to earn more money. 

When they master the job at Level 10 Directors obtain the "Director's Seat of Power" and they can also win awards like the Best Director Simmy -- with desirable effects like being able to place it in their home just for fits and shiggles.  Personally once you complete the Director's Path it might be worth it to quit and start over so you can do the Actor's path in order to get that spiffy trailer as well!
