So Many Film Schools…So Little Time

Published on June 11, 2009

If you are considering enrolling into a film school program or workshop, you have plenty of choices.  After checking out a few school directories I counted over 950 film schools in 69 countries…with over 260 being in the United States! Check out Filmmaking.net for a comprensive list of film schools.

Consider this point when film school shopping.

If your dream is to make a living creating films,  your #1 goal needs to be to create films.  Going to film school is only a means to the end.

Having so many choices where to study filmmaking makes it more difficult to decide where to go, but it also presents you many opportunities to achieve what your #1 goal should be – creating films. When deciding where to go to film school, take the time to find a school that best supports you creating films. Check out my other post to help you decide what film school is best for you – “What is the Best Film School For You?

It’s true you have little time, but if you spend it wisely you can create more of it.
