Leo,

 

The only school I know of is the Film and TV School of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague. Here is an English language link: FAMU : FILMOVÁ A TELEVIZNÍ FAKULTA AKADEMIE MÚZICKÝCH UMÌNÍ V PRAZE

 

You can gather more information here as well: FAMU - Prague Czech Republic

 

As the site mentions, director Milos Forman and MAGNUM member Josef Koudelka were graduates of FAMU; you'd be in good company.;)

 

I had great plans to enroll, but my father's decision that I should follow in his footsteps and study law, as well as the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968, changed my plans drastically.

 

Best,

 

Jan

Hey Leo,

 

there are a few "good" schools in europe.

As Jan mentioned the FAMU in Prague is nice if you want to learn in a traditional black and white documentary school. I studied there for one year, but it`s expensive and you`re in an international class without contact to the czech students. Vevey in Switzerland http://www.cepv.ch has a good reputation, aswell as the artschool Leipzig in Germany http://www.hgb-leipzig.de, or the school in Arles http://www.enp-arles.com, aswell as the schools in Paris, Madrid, Brighton etc...Photojournalism, is really interesting in Aarhus/Denmark http://www.cfje.dk but without a BA or MA degree.

So, now you have to decide!

Miguel

thanks for your replies.

I've thought about FAMU for some time now, and I really like Prague, so that would definitely be a good choice for me.

I'm also quite interested in Parson Paris. Does anyone have any experience from there?
