Film School in So. Cal. - Your thoughts?

I'm looking into going to film school and would love any opinions you may have. I live in Orange County, CA and am open to suggestions.

I am curious about what you guys think about the following programs and if there are any others you think I should consider. Because of my age (30) I'm more intested in the shorter programs.

A little about me: I am most interested in Cinematography and Directing. I've worked on several indie projects but think some formal training may be needed to get me to the next level.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I have heard that Chapman has a great program but due to both time constraints and addmissions reasons its not an option. Thanks for the response though.

Anyone else want to chime in? I'm going to take a look at New York Film Acadamy tomorrow.

Calarts is a very good school, Brooks is one of the top photography school in the nation, can't go wrong there. NYFA is a bit bogus... Other schools to consider: USC and UCLA film School and the Passadena art center.
