    Is CSUN or UCI better for film?

    I recently got accepted into excellent film schools: UCSB, UCI, UCR, CSUN, CSULB, CSUF, and CSULA. However, my mind is set between UCI and CSUN they are closer to me and I can manage better. The problem is I have done my research and both schools have great explanations for the film/media...
