Video School

[Matthew Sims]

Hello all. I don't want to start another thread based around Dana and his video skills. It is quite evident that he knows what he is doing and is very good at it. The question that I have, is how does one go about learning and acquiring these skills?

I've been performing since the age of 5. Over the years I've progressed through magic, and now I want to take it a stage further. I'm beginning to create my own material, and in this day in age, everything is revolving around media. I want to learn how to make promo videos for my material so that I can put it on the market.

What are the exact classes or courses called in school?
About how long do the classes run?
And when you complete the courses, how could one use it to make money aside from filming his magic?

I've been looking at different colleges (Art Institute of Colorado) along with some more.

Any help and suggestions are much appreciated. I feel as if I'm kinda stuck in a rut at the moment. I'm really wanting to take that next step, I just need some help finding my way.

Hello Matt;

I was looking through some colleges and universities with extensive art/cinematography programs, and Savannah College of Art really struck me.

I'm going to pursue a career in medicine, but it may be usefull to you

I sounds like they have a very solid and extensive program - with alot of experts and technology!
