Our son received an excellent high school education at this prestigious grade 7-12 public charter…read moreschool. The teachers are top in their fields and experts leading the after-school arts component for 17 diverse conservatories across five distinct schools are equally impressive. This is a highly sought after institution for good reason: their outstanding college readiness scores tell the story. This is a demanding school but it is also highly creative and inclusive, encouraging a culture of collaboration as well as independence. Students build skills that will use the rest of their lives, developing important friendships along the way as they learn and create. While we enjoyed the work and performances of all 17 specialties, the Popular Music and Culinary Arts conservatories were especially close to our hearts. We attended performances for music, dance and theater, thoroughly enjoyed the "Throw Down" in the Culinary and Hospitality Conservatory and bid on a number of art works during our time there. For parents, there are opportunities to get involved while attending special events throughout the year. It truly is a very special place. At the end of his four years there, our teen applied and was accepted into the college of his dreams. We literally could not have done it without OCSA. We highly recommend this school and encourage interested families to check out their summer programs, attend a preview day or simply call the school.

The Children's Unlimited Talent (CUT) Studios Documentary Debut this coming Monday May 10, 2010 at…read more7pm. The CUT Studios has been hand picked as one of the five most compelling non-profit organizations in Orange County and will be featured in a documentary film produced by Chapman University film students. The Children's Unlimited Talent (CUT) Studios is an intervention outreach program that focuses on using music as a motivator to encourage at-risk students to work hard in school and teach them the necessary skills to become leaders in their communities. The CUT Studios' Academic Rewards Program, "Make the grades, make the CUT", grants the youth access to modern music technology and instruction in exchange for academic improvement and outstanding behavior. These films are part of COMMUNITY VOICES, a new initiative at Chapman University's Dodge College of Film and Media Arts to reach out, educate, and support the surrounding community. Please join us in this wonderful collaboration with the Chapman University Student Film Department. You can find the site on below link: http://ftv.chapman.edu/about/event_calendar/community_voices_documentary_screenings/ Located in beautiful Orange, California, only 45 minutes away from Hollywood and 30 minutes away from the famous Southern California beaches. Chapman University's Dodge College of Film and Media Arts, the state of the art Film School was established in 1996, theis facility opened in August of 2006. It includes 2 sound stages, computer labs, and 500 seat theatre. It was built on the second half of the Anaconda Wire & Cable Company property. Opened in August 2006, this 76,000-square-foot facility was specifically designed from the ground up to replicate a working production studio. From sound stages to state-of-the-art classrooms, computer labs with every program needed for pre- and post-production, design and special effects to our 500-seat Folino Theater to showcase your end result or host an amazing event, this building is a living, breathing creative space open 24/7 for your use. But it doesn't end there. For our production students, you'll have the opportunity to shoot either HD or film for your thesis projects. And all of our student productions are well managed through a detailed green light process by a team of faculty and staff to ensure that all your basic production needs are met. Plus, with our close proximity to Los Angeles and the heart of Hollywood, we maintain strong relationships with local vendors such as Panavision and Mole Richardson to give you additional support for anything beyond our inventory in Dodge College. And the technology just keeps getting better. You'll learn quickly that our philosophy is to never settle, so we are constantly upgrading our equipment to make sure our students are learning on industry-standard tools. Every year the needs of our students are assessed and new cameras are bought, computers are upgraded, and additional software is purchased. And it's nothing but the best from day one for our students. As a freshman, you will be shooting on high-definition cameras in our Introduction to Visual Storytelling class. Truly there is no better facility than Marion Knott Studios, but seeing is believing. That's why we encourage every prospective student to schedule a tour to visit Dodge College.

I started going to Spotcolor when I was a junior in high school, and it made a huge difference…read more They taught me everything from the basics and helped me build a strong portfolio. Thanks to their guidance, I was accepted to every college I applied to and received scholarships from most of them as an international student. At the art school I attended, someone in the financial aid office even told me that she had never seen an international student receive as much scholarship funding as I did. The instructors were incredibly kind, supportive, and genuinely cared about their students' success. Even more than 10 years later, I still keep in touch with some of them. I highly recommend Spotcolor to anyone who's serious about applying to art school or building a strong portfolio. I'm truly grateful for everything they taught me.

I didn't have much time to curate my portfolio, but I learned and created so much during my time here. I entered class not knowing much about fashion and costume, but they taught me everything I needed to know starting from the basics. All the teachers are super attentive and helpful to each student, and I'm still eternally grateful I had the opportunity to learn from them. I was accepted into almost all of my dream colleges and am currently an alumni at one of the best universities in the nation for theatre design. If anyone's looking for an art studio that will help you with your portfolio every step of the way, I would definitely recommend taking classes here!

If you want your child to exercise their creativity in any way, definitely look elsewhere.

Public safety is also really wonderful with you and they're really caring. One of the Public Safety officers was comforting me when I was taken to the hospital on a suicide attempt at 18. This place also has an annual event called Take Back the Night where survivors of sexual assault speak out at the Fish Interfaith Center. Speaking of the Fish Interfaith Center, this place is also incredibly inclusive to people from different religious backgrounds. This place celebrates religious holidays for students from different religions. I find that really nice. I also love how this place allows people, who aren't Chapman students or staff, to come to this place. I met an older man who wanted to know how to find this place for an Iftar dinner. I showed him where it was and he went in here, and he got the food. This place has also been really wonderful to me when I was a victim of financial sextortion at 18. I met a lot of people who were amazing and kind to me after I shared with them about my experience. I had a case manager who comforted me when I was going through the trauma of this. I also had a professor who comforted me and told me that financial sextortion wasn't my fault at all. The 4th floor on the Argyos Forum is a great place for career fairs, and a great place to meet with potential employers. I got a chance to meet with a Secret Service employer who was such a wonderful man. This place also has wonderful areas to take your graduation photos from. In fact, if you come here during the months of April to mid-May, you'll find lots of graduating students posing for photographers.
