A degree is not as important in this industry compared to others, but if you can do, do it.
Its not important if you are happy with a production position. There is things you learn in school that you will only learn on the job if you are dedicated enough to educate yourself constantly (and this goes way beyond knowing how to make a mask in photoshop).
Its not about the paper on the wall, its about dedication to what you do, the paper doesn't mean anything, you are right, what id does, is all those nights with no sleep studying or working hard to deliver on time, its proof of dedication and love for the profession.
Talent has nothing to do with going to school or not going to school.
Do you love this profession? if you are going to skip school that's ok with me, but you will have to study twice as hard on your own, for longer time to catch up. Aim to be the best, I know it sounds cheesy, but its true.
