Hey,/film/, I'm thinking about applying for this international program (http://international.famu.cz/page.php?page=38) at FAMU, does anyone here have any experience with FAMU at all? I've heard good things but it would be nice to hear some personal experiences if anyone has any. Or experience with film school in general

Are you American? If so, just go to Tisch and do the year abroad.

Maybe I'm just a bitter judgemental cunt but I couldn't see myself paying any amount of money to spend a year working with those people pictured.

Prague is quite beautiful and I'd love to spend time there. I think film school is about "networking" with your fellow students as much as actual learning. By that I mean you may want to work with your friends when you graduate.

I'm a sophomore so if I transferred to Tisch I probably wouldn't be able to study abroad

Don't do it unless you have unlimited mommydaddy trust funds to spend.

I don't, they'll help me pay for some but not all, but the program in Prague is way cheaper than s year of school in the US anyway

What can you learn from a film school that you can't onthe internet or books?

it's not about learning theory and watching films so much as it's about getting experience making films with like-minded people and making connections and stuff. I've told myself I don't need film school for the last two years, and I've learned a lot on my own time, but studying film can only get you so far
