<p>Hi SpiritManager..Thanks...first of all yes i know USC Film Scoring Course...i will go their once i complete my BM in Composition...UCLA...yes i know it's a good school but maybe i prefer the east coast for now since there are great schools (maybe even better than UCLA for Composition) and my father lives in Atlanta.
by the way i never heard about Chapman....you're talking about the conservatory right? Thanks again</p>
<p>Chapman does have a Conservatory of Music: <a href="http://www.chapman.edu/music/%5B/url%5D">http://www.chapman.edu/music/</a></p>
<p>The University is in Southern California and is heavily endowed with money from the film world. I have no idea what the quality of the music composition program is - I just know that connections will be made there with future directors/producers.</p>
<p>Another place to check out (closer to Atlanta) would be Florida State University: <a href="http://music.fsu.edu/%5B/url%5D">http://music.fsu.edu/</a> They have a serious college of music and one of the most exclusive film programs in the country.</p>
<p>Other schools with very strong film programs which also have strong music departments are Bard & Wesleylan.</p>
