There are thousands of people who went to LA Film School who never worked a day in film business. This school does little to prepare you for the real world of flimmaking. I went to this school and I now work in the film business, but what I "learned" at LAFS meant little or nothing in getting my career going. I went to a "real" film school after LAFS and that got my career started
There is a strong connection

There is a strong connection between music and arts and film making. Most of our Hollywood movies have a music score.
If you would like to listen to some of the most happening hip hop, rap or R&B from movies then check out Beats Planet at http://beatsplanet.com. here you will find beats for sale and much more. Its worth taking time to visit them.

Need some advice
Submitted by meylingl on Sat, 04/24/2010 - 1:43pm.
hello everyone! I'm new at this site & I've found it very useful. I'm an international student trying to decide between NYFA & LAFS. I've read a variety of opinions here (some good, some bad) but I'm considering at this point LAFS over NYFA. I know you have to choose you're school depending on your own needs, so it's impossible for all to agree in one school. In my case, what I need is a school teaching me the basic knowledge of filmmaking/video. I love the biz but I have 0 experience whatsoever. I don't want to enroll and then be lost among other experienced people. Finally, as far as I know LAFS is a high-priced school, even more than NYFA. Money issue is very important!!
Thank you for even taking the time to read this, and for the incoming advices...thank you in advance.

I went here, and it really exceeded all my expectations. When i was admitted I prepared myself with some ideas on scipts and all that, and was pretty sure that i wanted to go in the direction of directing. After my program ended in one year, i had a great thesis with all the bits worked out, plenty of hands on experience with filmmaking, and a bunch of really great connections. i was able to study a bit of all the specialties, and realised i prefered producing over directing. This school has put me in the right direction and given me all the tools i need. This is pretty much what we are all looking for in a school, and LA film has it all..
This is a good school. you

This is a good school. you can get your basic crash course in 12 months, and be out of there in no time. You don't need a degree to get into the film industry becuase no one is interested in where you went to school, just what you can do, and who you know. if you know someone, you can get a job, that is the biggest battle for most students. They have great equipment, cameras, facilities, all the right stuff you need to learn with. Also, they have partnered with Full sail, so you can see what to expect.
One of my friends went there and did the program, and is already making movies. The key part of it is that the teachers are not full itme, and are actually professionals, so you can get contacts as soon as you start, and your right there in the middle of hollywood. I am hoping to go to LA film school too.
I've been considering LAFS

I've been considering LAFS and the people who I have talked to who work there are super helpful, people who hate on it seem to think that when you go to school things get handed to you. well its not. All schools are expensive. All schools have ups and downs, all you can hope for is access to professionals, and to make the connections needed to get into business, shcool is not a surefire way to makeing millions, especially not if you want to get into the toughest industry to break into.
This school has some great faculty, and its not that expensive at all compared to so many other film schools. do your research.
dont do it!

A waste of time, over priced, underwhelming, better off getting internships or applying to craigslist ads to work on student sets, you'll learn more than you would from this slick infomercial sales pitch with nothing of substance to back it.
Do yourself a favor and save 40 grand.
