People who go to Pitt, help me out...

<p>I got accepted to Pitt and I'm wondering about the classes/class sizes--I will be attending the film school.</p>

<p>Also, what are the dorms like?</p>

<p>They have a description, floor plans and sometimes video of the different dorms.</p>

<p>There isn’t really a “film school.” It’s Film Studies. Basically you’ll take study/analysis courses at Pitt and production classes at Pittsburgh Filmmakers.</p>

<p>To be completely honest, Pitt isn’t a film school. There’s definitely resources to take advantage of in Pittsburgh, but you’ll have to do it yourself. I just saw this on craigslist:</p>

<p>They do film a lot of movies around here. The film classes are okay but don’t expect anything on the level of USC/NYU/ or a real “production” major.</p>

<p>That said, the people in those departments are really cool, and the class sizes are very small. There’s probably 15 people in my production course, 15 in Composition:Film, and 25 in my analysis course.</p>

<p>Send me a PM if you have any other questions.</p>

<p>I agree with pandem, there’s no film school. What you’re talking about is a major.</p>
