Los Angeles Film Connection Film School
Your LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA FILM SCHOOL ALTERNATIVE
Nowhere on earth are there more film schools to choose from than in Los Angeles, but there is only one among them that gets you inside an actual Los Angeles film production company as a film student apprentice, learning directing, producing, editing, camera, screenwriting or general production. Even with all the film schools out there, the smartest way to break into the Los Angeles film business is to start inside a Los Angeles film production company as a film apprentice. And FILM CONNECTION can help.

Nicoletta Lingrosso
LOS ANGELES, CA
I had class this week with Aimee. I will be working on my new documentary the next two weeks and showing Aimee my progress through the power point presentation as I am preparing it as well as my treatment. I hope to start on the interviews in the next 3 weeks. I will be finished with the rough edit of my first documentary by March 11th "The Good Hunt". I have also been watching some classic films that have been assigned by me. I must say Citizen Kane is by far my favorite as of yet.
I am still working as a PA for the Director in Post Production which has been a great learning experience as I have been sitting in with the Editors the past 2 months. I am working on my scripts as well and hope to enter a writing contest at the end of March and soon to begin writing a new comedy. I am working on my website and once that has been completed I will post it to Myspace, Facebook and Mediawarrior. I have created a new company with my sister as she is the director on my documentaries and I am the producer. The company name is FocusIncProductions.
This is what I have been doing in the past 2 weeks and I will continue working on this until my next meeting with Aimee on March 11th. Things are going well and this has been the best experience and career training program.

I moved to Los Angeles and within a week I had an interview with a Film mentor that was a perfect match for me. My mentor is a Producer who works on indie features. He takes me on his projects where I learn from him.
