Yeah school is a good option dude im currently in school for game programming (though im only using programming as a means to enter) and its going good so far. You could always get some book and read about the certain field you would like to practice in the industry and then do a couple of projects with the knowledge you gain, which could then turn into a portion of your resumes. theres alot of ways to enter to IMO though school will probably give you the biggest boost.
