Film Studies Major

<p>Does anyone know much about the film studies major at Columbia? In particular, is there any/much opportunity for actual film production for an undergraduate student? (Or, is it mostly film criticism and screenwriting?)</p>

<p>Any ideas on how a film studies major experience at Columbia might compare to the NYU/Tisch Film and Television undergraduate program?</p>

<p>Any comments (or helpful links, etc.) would be most appreciated!</p>

<p>I only know second hand info but a friend of mine is a film studies jr. As a final project for one of his classes this semester he has to direct his own film...he's had other classes where it's just analyzing too tho.</p>

<p>I'd say call or email the film dep't and see what they say.</p>

<p>P.S. film is like 90% girls, it's like being in a barnard class...so it's a good way to meet females (tho you run into the difficulties of incest with those in ur major) = )</p>
