[rdegracia]

I need some help in order to choose a film school in USA for a 1 year program on cinematography. Attending money/cuality aspects... What would you reccomend? AFI, LA Film School? UCLA? NY Film School?, etc...??? Thanks in advance

For a one year, there are a lot of really good programs:

New York Film Academy
Fullsail
AFI

UCLA or USC might have a one-year program for cinematography. I know they haver one-year writing programs, but I am not sure if they have cinematography programs.

Also, some other places to ask around are University of Texas at Austin, University of Central Florida, Emerson, New York University.

I go to fullsail and I love it. They focus more on the tech aspect of things and it is really good because you cant teach people how to be creative.

USC and AFI do not have 1-year programs.

My friend went through the LA Film School program and loved it. He's been 1st AC'ing or DP'ing quite consistently since graduating about a year ago.
