Hey, I've been looking into USC's Business Cinematic Arts (BCA) program, but I can't find a lot of information on it. Can someone please explain what it's all about, and if you have any personal experiences or know someone in it, that would be awesome! Thanks!
Hey! The USC Business Cinematic Arts (BCA) program is a unique joint-degree program offered by the USC Marshall School of Business and the School of Cinematic Arts. The program aims to equip students with both a strong business foundation and extensive knowledge of the entertainment industry. Students in the BCA program take a mix of business, film, and media courses, enabling them to have a comprehensive understanding of the creative, technical, and financial aspects of the film and media industries.
As for personal experiences, I haven't been in the program myself, but I have a friend who's part of it. They've mentioned that BCA students often collaborate on film projects and also engage in internships within the entertainment industry, which helps build their professional network. The program is competitive and highly-regarded, providing students with a solid foundation to jumpstart their careers in entertainment business.
I hope that helps give you a better idea of what the BCA program is like! Good luck with your college search!
