			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are considering applying to film school, the following checklist of things to look for may be helpful. Often it is not possible to travel to every film school you apply to, so comparing a school&#8217;s bulletin against this checklist will help.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The bulletin is a booklet (or book, in some cases) that breaks down the classes and resources offered by the school. It is updated and issued to students every academic year. Bulletins are typically be mailed to prospective students upon request, but many film schools have them online.</p>
<p><span id="more-53"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are applying to a large university, request the bulletin of the school that the film program is located in. For example, the film school at NYU is located in Tisch School of the Arts (TSOA), so you would request TSOA&#8217;s bulletin. Actually, there are three film programs at NYU, located in TSOA, the School of Journalism, and The School of Professional Studies. From this you can see why it&#8217;s important to request the correct school bulletin.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Again, a lot of this can be found online. Just keep in mind that the larger schools can be a maze of interconnected websites. To save time, you might try The Film School Reporter&#8217;s US and international film school directories (link below).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Perhaps better than reviewing the film school&#8217;s bulletin is calling them directly with your questions. We don&#8217;t recommend calling admissions. They are too far removed from actual film instruction and production, so their answers will be too general. The same goes for advisers and counselors.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">What we recommend is that you call a member of the film faculty or production staff. They are in the best position to give you an inside look at the film school. Go through the points below with them. You&#8217;ll find that they are not out to &#8220;sell&#8221; the school and their answers will be surprisingly blunt.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Here is the checklist:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Equipment<br />
What type of production and post-production equipment does the film school have? How often is it upgraded? This second question is most important. You don&#8217;t want to learn filmmaking on outdated gear. This can be determined by researching the school&#8217;s camera models online. Look carefully at the digital video cameras. Are they high definition (HD) or standard definition (SD). Standard definition equipment is fast becoming obsolete.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If they teach film in addition to video, is it 16mm, Super 16, or 35mm? 35mm is a big plus because Hollywood is reluctant to give up this format. On the other hand, 16mm and Super 16 have little value except as a stepping stone to 35mm.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Film Faculty<br />
Are there any award winners? Check their credentials in the bulletin, and then crosscheck them online against the Internet Movie Data Base. You&#8217;ll be surprised by what you find.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Filmmaking Courses<br />
Do they cover the areas that you want to specialize in (e.g., narrative, documentary, experimental, TV production, etc.). If you want to make documentary films but the school specializes in narrative production, you don&#8217;t want to discover this on the first day of class!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ties to the Industry<br />
What are the film school&#8217;s ties to the industry? Do they have successful (i.e., famous) guest speakers, faculty, or advisers?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Student Films<br />
Are the school&#8217;s student films available for your review? Some schools issue them on DVD, while others put them online. Take a look-see. It will give you an idea of the type of filmmaking the school fosters, as well as its caliber. Are there award winning films in the archives? Successful alumni?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Student Exchange Programs<br />
This is not for everyone, but it might be important to you if you have a desire to experience international technologies and film education.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Career Opportunities<br />
Does the school have a student internship program or job placement program for graduates? There are two points not mentioned above that you should consider, both revolving around money. First, if the school you are considering is out of town, you must factor in the cost of living in a dorm or apartment during the course of your studies.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Second, you must consider the cost of making student films. Unlike, other academic programs, which only require books and supplies, film courses require that you make movies, which can be quite expensive. Some schools offer &#8220;allotments&#8221; to help defray the cost of production, but it is usually only a fraction of the actual expense. So, in addition to tuition, add on the cost of housing and making student films.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We hope this guide is helpful in researching the right film school for you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Graduates from a Film Studies program have a new opportunity in film &amp; video production. Of course, with every opportunity comes a challenge &#8211; and in this case, the challenge is to find financing for your, or your employer&#8217;s, projects.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">With the advent of digital equipment the scope of film &amp; video production has widened. The usual Hollywood styled film production is no longer the only route to a career for film graduates. There are a multitude of opportunities in audio and visual applications throughout business, government and the entertainment industry. That means OPPORTUNITY for the keenest graduates to produce their own film &amp; video projects, or to land the most interesting positions with leading film &amp; video production companies.</p>
<p><span id="more-47"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Financing has been a dirty word for years in the film industry. The &#8216;Blue Suits&#8217; and the cold heart of the banker are synonymous with the enemy of the creative. However, in this new era of opportunity you need to be both the &#8216;Blue Suit&#8217; and the creative.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">How do you find a way to learn about film financing, film budgeting, etc.? First let&#8217;s look at Film Studies programs.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are so many Film Study programs available now that I find it confusing, and I&#8217;ve worked in the film industry for over 20 years. The Universities are taking a Liberal Arts degree approach to their curriculums, and the Colleges/Schools are primarily taking a hands-on technical approach. In either case, it is unarguable that Film Studies is big business. The following excerpt from The New York Times Company, published<br />
March 6, 2005©, made it clear to me how big a business Film Studies really is:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;Some 600 colleges and universities in the United States offer programs in film studies or related subjects, a number that has grown steadily over the years&#8230;. At the University of Southern California, whose School of Cinema-Television is the nation&#8217;s oldest film school (established in 1929), fully half of the university&#8217;s 16,500 undergraduate students take at least one cinema/ television class.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Which College, School or University will best prepare the graduate for a career in film &amp; video? If a student has invested 2 to 4 years of their lives in this degree, how can they turn it into a worthwhile career?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Let&#8217;s see what the Universities say about their own programs, and the kind of results they expect &#8211; that is, what the Graduate will be capable of when entering the work force. This promotional letter, posted on one University&#8217;s web site, says it all:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;A major in Film Studies is not an occupational or professional degree. A sound program of studies in this discipline, however, should qualify a student for a variety of vocational possibilities. Obviously an individual will need to employ his or her knowledge about film in either a creative or a practical capacity and, in either case, exercise the judgment and initiative that a rigorous pursuit of a major in Film Studies should develop.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The use of &#8217;should&#8217; twice in three sentences tells the story &#8211; it&#8217;s up to you, Bud!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Film Studies programs (at any level) either don&#8217;t address, or don&#8217;t address strongly enough, the major force behind all film and video production &#8211; the MONEY! If the word money is brought up at all, it&#8217;s only a handshake and a nod. Most undergraduate programs have very little mention of Film Budgeting, and such things as Cost Reports and Business Plans are treated as foreign topics entirely. The Masters programs are only slightly better.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The reason for the void of information on such things as Film Budgets, Cost Reports, etc. in the academic sector originates from the big Hollywood production machine. The perpetual negotiations with the three big guilds (SAG, DGA and WGA), as well as with the IATSE &amp; Teamster crew unions has forced the producing studios to be extremely confidential.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">That era of total confidentiality isn&#8217;t over, nevertheless there is a huge demand to know more about film financing, film budgeting, etc. The new crop of Independent Film &amp; Video makers want to make their own projects, find their own financing and do their own film budgeting and reporting of production costs. It is even increasingly possible for producers to distribute their own projects over the internet.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Believe me, the film school graduate who has a thorough understanding of their Film Studies program, AND understands the basic processes of Film Budgeting, Cost Reporting and Business Plans, is light-years ahead of the pack. A film studies graduate who can help prepare a financing package (that is, help to prepare a Film Budget and a simple Business Plan) would absolutely blow away any Independent Film &amp; Video Production company. Can you imagine an Independent Producer who wouldn&#8217;t LOVE to have help with preparing and presenting a financing package?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I used to assume that the film students had a lack of interest in Film Budgeting and Costs (of any kind). Not anymore. I recently did a survey of film students at a respected film school. Here are the results of the survey:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Over 80% of the students said they felt it was important to know more about budgeting and how it affected their careers as filmmakers.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Film &amp; Video production is one of the biggest industries in THE WORLD (next to weapon manufacturing, of course). The wide spread use of digital medium has created a new opportunity. That opportunity, although less expensive than the Hollywood style film productions we&#8217;ve grown used to, is still costly and requires financing. How do you get that financing? Where do you start?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Answer: You start with the basics of Film Budgeting, Cost Reporting and very simple Business Plans. If you can calculate a focal point, or learn how to operate a video camera, a Film Budget is a piece of cake.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Based on my experience over the past 20 years in the film industry, I can confidently say:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">1. Graduates from Film Study programs who know the basics of film &amp; video production money (Budgeting, Cost Reporting and Business Plans) will find they can take on more responsibility in their film &amp; video projects, and</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">2. as a result will have more successful careers than their peers who haven&#8217;t learned to prepare Film Budgets, who don&#8217;t understand any production&#8217;s Cost Report and who never saw a simple Business Plan.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So how does a film student get familiar with Budgets, Cost Reports and a simple Business Plan? I&#8217;ve been a Production Auditor for 20 years and I&#8217;ve NEVER shown a crewmember a Final Budget or a Weekly Cost Report (the universally standard financial report card issued to the Financiers and Producers every week) in that entire time. They are considered sacrosanct by Studio Executives, Producers and Financiers everywhere.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Well, I&#8217;m about to tease you with some relevant articles that will open the door enough to let you walk through. They&#8217;re written for the complete novice, so be patient if you&#8217;ve already been exposed to budgets and cost reports.</p>

John has worked with some of the industries top professionals including academy award winning producer Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, Walter Salles, etc. John is the author of several articles as well as a book,&#8221;Walk The Talk&#8221;.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Lights&#8230; Camera&#8230; Action! If these words have a meaning in your mind that cannot be explained in words but signify the vision of your future then you should give yourself justice by going to one of the best film schools out there. Talent is many a times born and not created but refining crude talent or to give a direction towards a creative desire can be provided by these places where stars walk in and legends are born.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There is no doubt about the fact that the film industry is the broadest and the most creative field out there but making the cut in this cut throat industry is no easy task. With an array of great film schools out there that appreciate and nurture the dreams of people who are interested in making films, you cannot help your career better than getting yourself in one such place. People who have been trained with high quality film programs will have a greater scope in the movie making industry as it will provide the perfect platform for the big life.</p>
<p><span id="more-44"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The career scope of an individual who has successfully completed his or her film courses will be a fabulous one as such a person can enter film production companies, film studios, government film making departments and advertising agencies. If you have a really strong vision or a desire to bring on the big screen then you can go ahead and become a film director, film producer, film editor, etc and start your own freelance career. A number of film seminars are also available for new comers in this industry to learn the tricks of the trade and keep one updated about the latest advances in the industry.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Undergoing training with the best film courses will undoubtedly help you in learning all the aspects of various areas of film production like development, physical production and post production procedures to financing, legal issues, film distribution and film festivals. The best film schools will also teach you digital design, animation, visual effects, film and TV acting, game design, film promotion, sound design, makeup design and more. With such specialized training you will definitely hold an edge over other untrained artists.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Being artistic is one quality that most people aspiring to make a mark in this industry will possess and getting training with good film courses is the only way to beat the competition. Another great aspect to attending film schools is that it helps you greatly in gaining technical skills that are required to understand not only your core interest area but the supporting areas whose knowledge is required to be good at your job. Becoming a well rounded and trained professional in this industry will not only ensure you to achieve your targets but will also help you to understand the entire procedure involved in converting your crude concepts to a refined production.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Creativity is one quality that can create miraculous events in one&#8217;s life and creativity in the area of film making can be converted into a reality by attending great film schools. Geared with the correct knowledge and expertise no one will be able to stop you from walking the red carpet with the confidence of a true film maker.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">When we watch movies like Spiderman, King Kong and Star Wars, we often wish we could make movies like that. Especially people with a do-it-yourself bent of mind have this craving within to try and duplicate something that attracts them very much. Well, a Film School is their best bet to start learning the tricks of the trade, and check out their skills at film making.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Special Effects is one of the main highlights in these big-budget movies, and has proven to keep audiences&#8217; interests high. A lot of effort and money is being spent on making the special effects look awesome, futuristic and extremely realistic.</p>
<p><span id="more-41"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">While many are awestruck by the outstanding special effects, most are clueless as to how these effects are achieved. They have no inkling of what goes on behind the scenes. Some might even find their lack of knowledge very frustrating.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One of the ways to start learning about film making is reading books and visiting good sites on the Internet. A lot of information is usually freely available. We just have to spend some time searching for the right information. There are also online film schools that offer courses over the Internet.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">But when it comes to hands-on training, there is nothing that comes close to a film school program, where you personally get involved in making a student film and get to play the roles of director, cameraman, script writer, storyboard artist and a whole lot of other important technicians in the film industry.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The practical training that you get in a film school can never be obtained by any other means, and that is perhaps the greatest benefit of enrolling in a film school program. The equipment used for film making is extremely expensive and a film school might be the only way through which you can get a chance to handle and use them.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Film making is a team effort. Big-budget Hollywood movies literally require thousands of technicians working together to make a movie. It is not a one-man show. A film school is the best place to get trained for this environment. Here, you get to form a team, learn together as a team and depend on each other to make your first test film. You also learn to depend on each others skills, tolerate each others temperaments (and tempers) and generally learn the dynamics of team work.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For people with not much time or money, there are weekend programs where they can take a crash-course to get a taste of film making. These 1-day programs are also suited for people who just want to test the waters before taking the plunge into a full-fledged film school program.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Programs offered by universities tend to be more academic and theoretical rather than practical. On the other hand, programs conducted by film studios and other organizations affiliated to the film industry tend to have a more practical, hands-on approach. These schools also have as visiting faculty, technicians who are working on current films in Hollywood. Getting to know and learn from technicians in the industry is extremely valuable and can never be replaced by any other means of learning.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So, to make movies like the latest blockbusters, get enrolled in a good film school and learn the tricks of the trade. One day, you will see your name in the film credits!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">We all know there are a huge number of film schools located all over the country. There are also several colleges all over that have a film making program or teach some of the courses that are necessary to any budding filmmaker. It is important to get the most experience in this field to be successful. Choosing the right school to provide the film student&#8217;s education is key to the success of that student. If you are interested in learning film making, you should spend some time looking at film schools and with a certain set of criteria in mind to find the best school for your career.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first thing that you should look for in your film school is the faculty. Find out who the instructors are and their background. Most film schools put up information about their instructors on their websites. It would even be better if there is an instructor in the school that you have an interest in working with, you know their work and admire their work. Maybe you know their teaching technique and would like to work under them as a student. Whatever the reason there should be some mentor personality at the school that makes the school the ideal choice for you.</p>
<p><span id="more-38"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When you visit the school, look to see if the students seem happy. While this may seem like a trivial point it is actually very important. A creative atmosphere is full of enthusiastic happy people. You will thrive in an environment like this and the creativity will flow freely from you. This is most important in a creative field like film making. Films are products of creativity and nothing more. The idea for a film comes from the act of creating.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Check out the kind of equipment the school has at its disposal. This may not be something that you can check into easily, but it is a good question to ask when you are taking a tour of the school. You need to learn how to use the right film making equipment that you would probably be working with when you pursue your film making career.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Further to knowing what sort of equipment the school has, it is important that the school gives you a lot of hands on training. These opportunities at working with different types of gear for different aspects of film making will give you significant experience to help your film making abilities. The school should encourage the creative use of their equipment to all students. The staff should be well versed in how to implement alternatives in the event of an equipment failure. This can happen frequently on a film set and the film making student who learns these lessons is a valuable resource on any film.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Lastly, find out if the school teaches all aspects of film making. They should teach scripts, storylines, how to work with actors, filming, editing and effective use of time. These are all areas that are valuable in the film industry. A well-rounded student will have learned all of these areas of film making. Most of the time there will be a crew on the film to handle most of the areas of film making, but there will be times when these skills will come in handy.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Learn Filmmaking from accomplished professionals from Hollywood and other film capitals at Asia&#8217;s Premiere Film School, the International Academy of Film and Television.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">An editor lends structure, form and pace to a movie. The job of an editor requires a high level of creativity and craftsmanship. It is due to this reason that an editor is usually called the second director. The job can attain perfection through proper training and guidance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Several film-editing schools offer online or classroom training and courses on film editing. These courses cover the important aspects of editing, such as the basics of time and space, cutting shots and scenes, dialogue mixing with sound. They also include music, transitions, maintaining the continuity of the flow, adding the momentum and offering proper rhythm and pace.</p>
<p><span id="more-28"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The film editing schools offer extensive digital editing workshops, varying from four to twelve weeks and designed to make the students familiar with the necessary skills of a good editor. Highly experienced and certified instructors guide the students about professional methods to shoot and edit scenes, keeping with the storyline and flow of the movie. Students are also required to complete projects, providing them with hands-on experience in film editing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The students are also provided with the latest and necessary editing equipment, manufactured by renowned brands. The fees of the course may vary according to the duration and content of the courses. There are projects involving professional clients offered by some of the famous institutes. Many Institutes have placement opportunities to ensure the students&#8217; careers as film editors. These institutes welcome international students and offer migration assistance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Detailed information of all the procedures regarding course enrollment and fee structures can be found online. Students may also download online brochures for reference purposes. However, it is important to check and compare the course content and career opportunities offered by the various Institutes. A discussion with an ex-student of a particular institute can be very helpful.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Film Schools [http://www.e-FilmSchools.com] provides detailed information on Film Schools, New York Film Schools, Top Film Schools, American Film Schools and more. Film Schools is affiliated with Italian Cooking Schools.</p>
