San Jose State University

The suprising amount of connections you can make at this school is well, suprising. With Cinequest in the neighborhood every year its a great film school to be. For the price you get what you can get out of it. There are state of the art editing systems, classes in high def, all of that. But as with any education, the ability to make compelling art and be innovative really falls on your shoulders. The profs are helpful and knowledgable, they really care about establishing a strong film community within the bay area.
