<p>hello! i was recently accepted into nyu's stern program, usc's business in cinematic program through marshall school of business and undeclared through berkeley. first off, berkeley is my favorite school and i love it there. HOWEVER, ive always been very interested in the film business and i think i want a job in the industry. im having some trouble.</p>
<p>does anybody know the differences between NYU's Entertainment Media and Technology program and USC's Business in Cinematic Arts program?? Also, NYU gave me about 12000 more than usc per year and berkeley is much cheaper than both (in state).</p>
<p>if i want to get into this business what should i do? can i do it through berkeley or are the programs at nyu and usc both too good to give up? which is better? thanks!!</p>
<p>For straight up business - cal is by far the best then stern then usc
for film/business- usc then stern then cal. why?
usc has the best ties to the film industry and is known as the school to get you into the ‘biz’
nyu has also great ties but just location wise you will loose out on internships and connections
cal is good for everything apart from film</p>
<p>For straight up business, cal is only good if u want to work on the west coast. Almost no recruitment from NYC. U shud also realize that Haas school of business only has management as a major. No marketing or anything media related.</p>
<p>Stern is certainly mainly heavily recruited in NYC. Stern does have marketing as well as media minors, etc.</p>
<p>you guys think i should go to berkeley over usc if i want to get into entertainment industry? im struggling so much with this decision! and yeah i like the west coast.</p>
<p>with that being said, i am much more into artsy films as opposed to blockbusters. like i want to be making the lost in translations as opposed to the transformers. and it sounds like nyu caters more to that… however its to my knowledge that this production still occurs in la. like paramount has paramount vantage and fox has fox searchlight…
any advice? thanks!</p>
