Review about King's College in Los Angeles
I'm going to enter the director's faculty in Moscow. Parents suggested on a summer vacation to go to America, the best country in film making. The three-week program "English + Cinema" gave me a lot!
It was a real director's practice, extreme, it's all in English, it's difficult, but mega interesting! The trip was a success, a lot of contacts of fellow students from Europe, Asia, China, a short film of own execution and 3500 photos remained to memory. If you are fond of cinema, like me, go to America - it's worth it!
