Welcome to the jungle, JerryDean. Great to have you here.
That's a tough one. If you used your transferable skills, you could probably get into a game development gig, but then they wouldn't offer you acting, because you'd be too valuable as a developer. If you know game theory, maybe you can figure out the human interactions that influence casting agents and "play" the system :P
Maybe we should talk.

Like the Asian American DR in hangover. His name eludes ATM... Practice, Practice, Practice. Art is not like science, although it is a science. In your structured world you must apply aspects in a defined order. In art you can do whatever makes the end result look good. This includes but not limited to colored saran-wrap over the lens of a camera for a 'certain-look'. Not sold in a camera shop, not in any syllabus, effective and sometimes used. Take some lessons, sign up for some plays and see how it goes... It's life, don't take it too seriously or you may miss it.
