Find out who came from NYU and has been doing well recently. I know that Cary Joji ***anaga is probably...

    USC - MFA Film Production - Fall 2012

    Hey guys! This is coming from someone who lived in LA for three years before moving back to NYC. I would look at Echo Park, Silver Lake area because you can find housing for cheap and in a safe neighborhood. If you'll have a car you'll be close to the freeway so you could get to USC within 30...

    USC - MFA Film Production - Fall 2012

    @mexicanafilm Thanks! I'm thinking about documentaries...also sound. As a musician I think sound is extremely important. We shall see. Everyone has such great work! I'm really excited to meet and work with everyone. I'll be in LA in three weeks for a job if anyone is interested in meeting up.

    USC - MFA Film Production - Fall 2012

    Guys if you want a good idea of what we are up for if we get in I suggest reading the book called "Film School" by Steve Boman. He graduated there in 2009 I believe and before that had dropped out of the program a few years prior. It gives you great insight into what the program is like and...
