Is the Academy of Art University a great school for photography? If this is not who is the best top 3?
I was very happy with the AAU program. I received an MFA from the school in 1998. I can honestly say that I can draw, print and use digital media much better than most of my colleagues other art schools. Special emphasis is placed on technical skills and conceptual application / aesthetics. This means that not only knows how to take a picture and print very well, you know how to articulate their ideas well. Traditional black and white is still taught in the classroom and online. The photography division Digital has no equal in the nation. As material available to you – I had access to better equipment than many local benefits were in school. The teachers are forced to work in the business, so they know what the real world is like. In addition, the rare opportunity that the teacher will work, the Department is willing to transfer to another section of the course so you can excel. It is you, your needs and help you succeed. Emphasis is placed on getting ready for a real and fruitful career. Will not be long boring writing papers on the symbolism of blah, blah, blah. She shot print in the labs, and find ways that you and your work the world. Nobody cares if you have an A in your documents. Its portfolio counts in the real world. It is fully accredited – Regional WASC (Western Assoc. Schools and colleges) – regardless the school of your choice to ensure they have regional accreditation. However, it is expensive compared to a state university and the University of Chicago is a school very good. (His next reasonable Parsons, Brooks, Center for the Arts et al.) They are guaranteed for housing, I recommend you take advantage of this for at least the first year. San Francisco is not the easiest to obtain housing in the city is very rare and very expensive inches. Take time to make a turn, and use the experience of summer program art. This program is for secondary students. You live in a dorm and take classes. You can choose courses offered every race – I think the students take three or AE 4 classes for the summer. So in addition to photography, you can take web design, advertising, fashion design, either. You will have the opportunity to see the school first hand, meet the teachers view and use the facilities. I am very happy that I went to school – I can get something, anything which, at any time. Be my business and I know how to get more. I would not be where I am today without the help of the faculty of this school. Edit: When you go to San Francisco, Take your leggings, sweatshirts and coats. CA is sunny everywhere – the coldest winter you ever going to spend a summer in San Francisco. Seriously, it's cold. Even in August.
