Over that period, he learned all of the disciplines, and in the first week came up with an idea and wrote a draft for his short film. At the... -
NYU - Tisch Undergraduate Film & Television

Some professors are not great, but on the whole... -

Everyone in the school is good at what they do and connected. So you must make yourself differeny. DON’T wait to do internships. Make friends...

For more than a century, and across widely different cultures, film has been the primary medium for storytelling, for depicting and exploring the world, and for engaging and shaping the human senses and emotions, memory and imagination. We live in a time in which cinema, the theatrical exhibition of films to a paying public, is no longer the primary venue in which films are consumed. But even as it is being transformed by television, video, and digital media, cinema seems to survive, and...
