Electronic Media/Filmmaking

<p>Schools with Electronic Media/Filmmaking </p>

<p>I posted this in the parent's forum, and someone suggested that I post here too! I am a real novice in this area. </p>

<p>Looking for Schools with programs for digital/electronic media arts/video and audio production, scriptwriting, perhaps filmmaking. Would prefer it to be schools on the eastcoast, but open to all schools. Thank you.</p>

<p>Take a close look at Pratt Institute's Department of Digital Arts: <a href="http://www.pratt-dda.net/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.pratt-dda.net/&lt;/a> and <a href="http://www.pratt-dda.net/curriculum.php%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.pratt-dda.net/curriculum.php&lt;/a> .</p>

<p>Check out RIT. They not only have a film/video/animation major,but they also have a New Media Design program, which is a combination of digital and graphic design. Check them out. Be warned: their film/video/Animation major is one of the toughest majors to get admitted to at RIT.</p>

<p>Go to: <a href="http://www.rit.edu/%7E932www/ugrad_bulletin/colleges/cias/animation.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.rit.edu/~932www/ugrad_bulletin/colleges/cias/animation.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>SVA in NYC is pretty strong in what they call Computer Art. They have fairly specialized majors; film and video, graphic design, and computer art are three different majors. The BFA Computer Art Department has its own (informative) website.</p>

<p>School of Cinema-Television at USC
<a href="http://www-cntv.usc.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www-cntv.usc.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>The School’s six programs offer a broad-based education within the larger context of a highly esteemed university. Students choose one area of emphasis, but they study all aspects of motion pictures, television and digital arts whether they are aspiring writers, directors, scholars, animators or video gamers. </p>

<p>With undergraduate degree programs in the Division of Critical Studies, Division of Film and Television Production and Division of Writing for Screen and Television, the School also offers graduate degrees in these Divisions as well as in the Peter Stark Producing Program, the Division of Interactive Media, and the Division of Animation and Digital Arts.</p>

<p>P.S. USC's toughest school/ extremely competetive applicant pool each year.</p>

<p>Savannah College of Arts and Design
<a href="http://www.scad.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.scad.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Degree programs (related to digital arts) include advertising design, animation, broadcast design and motion graphics, cinema studies, film and television, graphic design, illustration, illustration design, interactive design and game development, production design, sequential art, sound design, and visual effects. </p>

<p>The animation department at the Savannah College of Art and Design grew out of the computer art program, which split into four majors (animation, broadcast design, interactive design and game development, and visual effects) in Fall 2003. Building on this background, animation at SCAD has grown to be one of the largest departments of its kind in the United States — with 412 undergraduate, 50 minor and 111 graduate students enrolled — and offers a multi-faceted curriculum that allows students to specialize in areas of interest.</p>
