[Frameworks] MFA

[Marcy Saude]

A few MFAs that are both "experimental" and offer a combo of funding and paid TA opportunities are University of Colorado at Boulder, University of Illinois Chicago and University of Iowa. UIC and Boulder both offer film within their studio art MFA programs. 

Good luck,

Marcy

Perhaps this is a touchy subject on this list, but I'd love to hear what anyone has to say on the subject of film MFAs. I am just starting the research phase of applying and any direction would be much appreciated. There seems to be such a polemic between film schools geared towards positioning students for industry jobs and film schools that focus more on individual practice, conceptualization, experimentation... And while I'd say I am way more on the later side, I'd certainly love to find a school that has a good technical foundation. Other than that, I'm looking for a school that offers working as a TA, or full rides... which seems harder and harder to find.... And just to throw it out there, any thoughts on Berlin? 

Sorry for the barrage of questions, but I figured who better to ask! 

Thanks so much,
