Q&A: Are there Civil Engineers involved in movie making?

Question by AnaBanana: Are there Civil Engineers involved in movie making?
In many movies like harry potter, chocolate etc etc we’ve seen fake cities/houses/buildings/roads etc are made.As you always need a civil engineer to build things,I was wondering if a civil engineer can pursue his/her career in movie making.What category their names come(when naming the crew at the end of the movie) and how the movie-civeng bussiness is(the salary/easy to find a job?)If you have any information or experience in this case please post an answer.Cheers!

You would have to make yourself an independent contractor, probably in Hollywood.
