Thanks to everyone for taking the time to repsond to my questions, especially Bill Dill for telling me what to look for in a school. I've decided (for now) to go to LA Film. I thought about trying it on my own, but I hate reading manuals and learning hands-on is so much easier/faster for me. Thanks again! Jessica

I also visited LAFilm back in May, but wasn't convinced I would learn what I needed. Plus, I haven't heard anything about their reputation in the industry, other than they are owned by FullSail which has a horrible reputation for not delivering what they promise. Does anyone know someone who went there? What was their skill level? Is an AFI fellow really gauranteed more respect than a graduate from a different school?

I am trying to choose a film school and the more I look the harder it is. I have been looking at the Los Angeles Film School. Is it credible? I haven't been able to find much about it on the net other than their website. Should I apply to AFI instead? Or should I just go to the summer workshops in Maine? I have a BFA in photography. I'm not sure I want to spend 3 more years in school and then start at the bottom with everyone else. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
