    How's the Film program at San Diego State?

    Hi, I tried looking for answers to this question online but couldn't find much. What's the undergraduate film program like at SDSU? It isn't on any ranking lists, so is this due to poor marketing or just a poor program? I went and toured the school during their open house, and I liked...

    How good of a portfolio or experience for CSULB

    I'm an upcoming 3rd year student at a Community College and am hoping to apply to CSULB for their Fall 2014 semester. I have some experience with making short videos.

    So, is CSULB actually any good?

    I've been accepted to the film school at CSULB, but honestly, it was my "backup" school, and I was really hoping more for USC or UCLA (especially UCLA, given the cost differential). I didn't get into UCLA *again* (appeal letter will be sent soon), but I've been asked for additional info from USC...

    CSUN vs CSULB

    Hello. I got accepted to both CSU Long Beach and CSU Northridge and want to be a movie director. I've been to both schools, and it seems pretty obvious that CSUN has more funding, and better equipment. I live in Long Beach though, so CSULB would be an easy commute. I don't know if the amount...
