BOOOOO TO BYU!
Haha, im a Ute. Well I was at least until I moved here to hollywood. I was at the University of Utah as a film studies major but it was only that, film studies. You could get a BA with only taking theory classes and it would take just as much weight as if you did not. There were a few great classes there however that gave you a very broad understanding of filmmaking and the theory classes were great for exposure to different types of film but it will not put you in the position to get a job in the industry. Eventually maybe, but its still a young program.
I Left to go to the Los Angeles film School, a year long intensive program. Expensive yes, but so far i think it is completely worth it. The sole focus is filmmaking and you choose what part of filmmaking it is you want to specialize in.
