I am feeling very torn between either UC Berkeley or UCSC

[latcat]

I thought I was set on Berkeley, to be honest just because I visited and thought I could get a good job if I went towards a Media Studies major. But, theory based is not the only aspect I want from studying my major. I visited UCSC today and I honestly just fell in love with the campus and I like that there are hands on production courses, which editing is my strong suit and I want to continue my skills in production. Does anyone know people who got media studies from Berkeley? Or Film Production in SC?

If you want to edit, UCSC will give you a well rounded film production degree. Berkeley’s media studies is just that, studying film and media, not creating films so I think the choice is pretty clear based on what you want to do
