    –posted in the fcp forum, but I’d like the widest spectrum of information possible. . . pardon the double-posting please.

    Hello,
    I am going to college in the not-too-distant future, and I would like to know: What is the best field to major in if I want to eventually start my own post-production house someday (and of course, I want to be as technically qualified as possible). I’m not talking about a small house either. What school and what major would be the BEST combination (assuming I can get in) to allow me to one day open a heavy-hitter post house?

    Art Center in Pasadena, CA. Since your goal is to hang your own shingle, you need to learn more than techniques (which you don’t need to go to college for anyway). Art Center will teach you discipline – working in an intense, competitive environment. They emphasize excellence and their students have done consistently well over the years.

    I’d avoid places that just teach you techniques. You can learn that anywhere.

    The Art Center is great. I’d hire a grad from there anytime. Very very high class.

    Their work is a joy to behold.
