Yup, but I graduated their audio engineering program (this is when they only offered audio and video post, not animation, back in '93-'94). The best advice I can give is, "You get out of it what you put into it." It was a good experience for me, personally. But after working in recording studios around nyc for a few years I came to realize that even if you walked in from the street, as long as you have a good attitude, are technical saavy, and spend the time learning the gear and practicing on your own, you have as much a chance of getting somewhere as the guy who paid lots of money for school. It's just something to think about. I don't regret going to FS because I learned quite a bit.

Anyway, FS is cool. The teachers know their stuff and are easy-going (most of them)....the classes/labs are diverse so I'm sure you'll learn alot and develop good foundation skills.......the projects are fun....you'll meet lots of interesting folks. Your best bet if you can arrange it would be to attend one of their open house things so you can get more of an idea what you'll be doing....it's a bit over the top with pyrotechnics but you'll have more of an idea of what to expect.
