4.0 out of 5 stars Nice reference book: precise, yet informative....., May 31, 2000
This review is from: Complete Guide to American Film Schools and Cinema and Television Course (Paperback)
This book lists all Film/TV schools and colleges by state. It has many-many different options listed: from community colleges to the grad schools. However, it does not provide more specific info about admission and local issues. As a general reference book, it is very uselful, if you are looking for all options possible. It does give you a brief idea about cost and access to the equipment for most institutions listed. This book is better than the ones I have seen on the subject so far.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good Reference - but very dated, August 18, 2005
This review is from: Complete Guide to American Film Schools and Cinema and Television Course (Paperback)
Pintoff has put together a very good reference of film schools and film programs around the nation

Unfortunately, it is now over 10 years old, and while many of the programs the book lists are still in existance, much of the info or data about them is too dated to be correct/relevant today

My biggest criticism though would be that the book only lists the various programs and gives contact info ---- other than that, there are no reviews or feedback of the programs

(...)

Despite the cynical vibe on LOAFS, it nonetheless, lists almost all the film programs available, and its completely free!

Happy reading!
