BLOG QUESTION BEG/ADV: SAN FRANCISCO STATE FIELD TRIP/COLLEGE PLANS

After touring California State University, San Francisco's film production facilities, what aspects of their program or resources stood out to you, and how do you think these could influence your approach to future film projects?

I was really impressed by the film facilities at SFSU, and I'm glad that I applied there because it's definitely in my top 3 schools now. I thought it was really impressive that they offer hands-on classes that actually teach students how to use equipment, and I like how they provide students with resources such as sound recording booths, sound stages, and free Adobe programs. I didn't know that they were known for post-production, and I also didn't realize that a lot of their alumni went into sound after graduating. While sound isn't my favorite part of filmmaking, I definitely want to know more about the art of editing sound since post-production is something I want to pursue as a career. I also found it interesting that they don't have students focus on one area of study, but rather encourage them to explore all aspects of filmmaking. It sounds similar to how our class functions, so I can imagine going there.
