Question by Klam: What would be the best film school for production/directing/ project/creativity oriented interests?
I’m looking at film schools and im trying to find the best one for me. somewhere that will help me and that teaches the way i learn. i work best with a project oriented curriculum and im interested in directing. i really want somewhere that isn’t only focused on big budget productions and the mainstream film industry.
so far i have:
NYU
Columbia
Edinburgh
London Film School
california institute of the arts
university of southern california
and i was looking at vancouver, but it looks like they only have a one year production course and it doesn’t seem to be focused on the stuff i wanna do too much :/
what do you people of the world think?

For film, it’s all about location, but you seem to have figured that out.
Out of all of those, I think USC has the most to offer. A lot of great filmmakers have graduated from there, and plus students get to work on Hollywood sets for internships. Sounds pretty cool!
