In Reply to: USC film school posted by C.B. on June 24, 2005 at 12:22:29:
My recommendation, for what it is worth: Take the 150,000.00 you would presumably spend to send your son to USC film school, and spend it instead on film equipment, literature, movie tickets, concerts, and world travels for your son. That would be a much better education for him. Films made by people with no world experience other than film school are usually pathetic.
Follow Ups:
By their senior year, student thesis film project will place them in debt by an additional $250,000-$500,000. Parents have to mortgage homes to pay for this.
Not a bad idea, except that you can't put that sort of thing on a resume for a job application.
I think it is at least an option if he is really serious about film. Ask yourself what differentiates the 50 from the 3,000 you mentioned. The difference to me is the willingness to experience life for its richness and beauty, not as a resume entry. It is a tough decision, and fortuntely one I don't have to consider yet for my own son. By the way, I highly recommend a book for you and your son called "Herzog on Herzog."
