USC School of Cinematic Arts

The School of Cinematic Arts teaching philosophy is built on the understanding

that people learn best by doing. Additionally, we believe that great ideas arise

when theory and practice are in constant interaction, propelling one another

forward.

To this end, students work directly with professors who are leaders in the in-

dustry and academia. Coming with a broad array of professional skills, many of

these women and men have won the top accolades of the art form, including

Oscars, Emmys, the Palm d’Or, the Pulitzer Prize, and the Humanitas Prize, to

mention but a few.

Another integral component of the SCA approach is for students, regardless of

their chosen area of specialization, to take a wide range of courses from across

the disciplines. Through this process critical studies majors get behind the camera

to make short films, writers direct actors to learn how to craft the best scripts,

and directors immerse themselves in the canon of work made by the generations

who came before.

The majority of the SCA classes take place in an atelier-like environment, with

small groups of undergraduates and graduates paired up with instructors,

researchers and teaching assistants. In addition to offering hands-on experience

with the latest technologies, working side-by-side also promotes a greater

sense of collaboration between the students and instructors. By encouraging a

free flow of knowledge and ideas, both student and teacher alike are inspired

to draw from each other’s experiences and input, resulting in novel, cutting-

edge film, television and interactive works.

our PHILosoPHYPREPARING LEADERS THROUGH HANDS-ON, COLLABORATIVE EXPERIENCE

When the University of Southern California included “Appreciation of the Photoplay”as part of its curriculum in 1929, USC leaders declared “Photoplay should beconsidered in any serious historical and scientific study of arts and sociology.”

Composed of six divisions and two Organized Research Units, the School of Cinematic Arts gives students

comprehensive exposure to all facets of film, television and interactive media production. This interdisciplinary

approach infuses undergraduates and graduates with a rich sense of possibility, inspiring them to push their

creative pursuits in directions they might not previously have considered. Additionally, exposure to elements

beyond their chosen areas of specialization also gives these men and women a deep understanding of how

their individual efforts are part of a much larger collaboration.

our PHILosoPHYPREPARING LEADERS THROUGH HANDS-ON, COLLABORATIVE EXPERIENCE

Ever since the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and

Sciences and the University of Southern California

teamed up in 1929 to establish the nation’s first

university-based film studies program, USC has set

the pace for film theory and practice.

Over the course of its history, the program has

sought not merely to meet the needs of the

industry and art form, but to anticipate them

and play an active role in shaping the direction of

the field.

Throughout the 20th century and now into the 21st,

the school has established a long and venerated

record of leadership.

well as in Asia, Africa and Australia.

• Over 200 festivals each year feature our student films, television

programs and interactive media projects.

our ImPactSTUDENTS, ALUMNI, FACULTY AND STAFF MAKE THEIR MARK, UNDERSCORING THE SCA MISSION STRENGTH

George Lucas ʼ66 and USC TrusteeSteven Spielberg cement theirlegacy outside Mannʼs ChineseTheatre on May 16, 1984.

As a sign of the schoolʼs impact, the top-10 grossing movies of all time have been created with USC alumni in key roles.Located in Los Angeles, the schoolʼs reach is world-wide: SCA instructors work with Hong Kong students during a summer workshop. Signing ceremony for the creation of the Red Sea Institute of CinematicArts; John Milius ʼ67 on location in Southeast Asia; middle-eastern students attend an SCA animation workshop in Annan, Jordan;Associate Professor Amanda Pope on a documentary shoot in Moscow.The school is the repository of collections from notable alumni and friends like Rick Carter, David L. Wolper ʼ49, Frank Sinatra, and Warner Bros.From student awards to Oscars, members of the SCA community hold some of the art formʼs highest accolades. Gary Rydstrom ʼ81 has a record-breaking seven Oscars; Conrad L. Hall ʼ50 won threeAcademy Awards; Ron Howard and Brian Grazer ʼ74 share multiple Emmy, Oscar and Golden Globe nominations and wins; Walter Murch with his two Oscars for The English Patient; John Singleton ʼ90was the first African-American nominated for a Best Director Oscar; John Wells ʼ82 won an impressive four Best Drama Emmy statuettes during the run of The West Wing.

The industryʼs best share their knowledge with cinema students: Alfred Hitchcock, circa 1968; Hugh Hefner, sponsor of the “Censorship in Media” class; John Cassavettes and Gena Rowlands visit the 466 class withArthur Knight; Ray Harryhausen explains some of the tricks behind Jason and the Argonauts; Scott Alexander ʼ85 and Larry Karaszewski ʼ85 reminisce about their days at USC.The cinema family gets together to celebrate and help: Andrew Marlowe ʼ92 (L) and Jeff Davis ʼ00 (R) join Dean Elizabeth M. Daley and Alumni Coordinator Justin Wilson for First Pitch; Randal Kleiser ʼ68, GeorgeLucas ʼ66, Bryan Singer ʼ89 and John Milius ʼ67 celebrate the Alfred Hitchcock Chair Endowment; the Peter Stark mafia commemorate 25 years of “Starkies.”Our interests and talents extend from television to new media, from books to film, and cover everything from entertainment to education.SCA alumni play a role in all facets of the art form: producer Laura Ziskin ʼ73; an array of USCʼs most famous and awarded cinematographers; producers Jennifer Todd ʼ87 and Suzanne Todd ʼ86; director Jay Roach ʼ86(R) on the set of Meet the Parents; writer John August ʼ92 visiting Leonard Maltinʼs 466 class.

The School of Cinematic Arts has long recognized the importance of diversity in

creating a vibrant art form and industry. Each year our six divisions attract dozens

of students from regions as disparate as Asia, the Americas, Europe, Africa and

Oceania. Through collaborations with individual, corporate, and non-profit partners,

the school seeks to help women and men from diverse backgrounds prepare for

careers throughout the entertainment arts.

Among these partners and initiatives are:

• Bill and Camille Cosby—underwriters of the workshop series for aspiring

African-American screenwriters, and supporters of the Bill Cosby Summer Youth

Institute for Film & Television, an eight-week summer program for local high school

students enrolled in USC’s Neighborhood Academic Initiative.

• Creative Artists Agency—funds annual scholarships to provide opportunities for

under-represented groups in the entertainment industry.

• Electronic Arts, Inc.—establishers of the Electronic Arts Endowed Scholarship Fund

used to support, encourage, and educate new voices within the interactive entertainment

industry and assist students whose work in videogame development will further the

interests of under-represented populations in the interactive entertainment industry.

• The In2TV/Freddie Prinze Endowed Fund for Student Support—a gift from

AOL/Warner Bros. that provides scholarship assistance to students who help support,

encourage, and educate alternative views in television and build upon the legacy of

Freddie Prinze.

• The Courtney and Steven J. Ross Fellowship—scholarship assistance for economically

disadvantaged women students.

• The NAACP/CBS Fellowship—awarded to students who further the interests of

under-represented men and women in the entertainment industry. Recipients are also

mentored by CBS executives throughout their academic program and participate in

an internship at the NAACP Hollywood Bureau.

• The Gary Cooper Endowed Fund for Student Support—established by Cooper’s

daughter Maria Cooper-Janis in honor of her father’s passionate interest in American

Indians, their culture, life, beliefs, and traditions. This fund furnishes financial

assistance for American Indian students.

By the very nature of how they are created, the

cinematic arts are a highly collaborative effort,

with the success of an individual project directly tied

to the shared vision, determination and skills of the

teams behind them.

Located in the heart of Los Angeles, the School

of Cinematic Arts is uniquely positioned—both

geographically and programmatically—to capitalize

on this sense of community.

On any given day, top directors, actors, producers,

animators, writers, agents, scholars and others come

to campus to share their wisdom and experience with

the men and women who seek to follow in their

footsteps.

Likewise, leaders from across the film, television and

interactive realms help guide the school through

their participation on the SCA Board of Councilors,

the Television Advisory Council and the Alumni

Development Council.

Numbering some 10,000 strong, our alumni form a

close-knit community both in Los Angeles and around

the globe. The bonds these women and men form

with their classmates often last a lifetime, and they

actively support new members of the Trojan family.

The school has also been proactive in assisting them,

through the creation of alumni job boards, career

seminar series, and networking events.

SCA is also actively engaged in building community

through numerous neighborhood outreach programs

to nurture members of the younger generations to

explore how the cinematic arts can profoundly alter

their futures.

Through their vision and generosity, individuals

and corporations alike have been integral in

enabling the School of Cinematic Arts to provide its

students with leading-edge facilities and technical

resources.

This assistance has fueled the development of the

school’s capital infrastructure, including instructional

buildings, soundstages, theaters, music scoring

stages, a digital arts center, and interactive research

laboratories. Donations for equipment have also

enabled us to outfit these complexes with industry-

standard production and post-production hardware

and software systems.

In supporting the school, individuals and companies

are making a direct investment in the future of

thousands of women and men, who leave SCA with

the technical and creative knowledge and experience

needed to propel the future of film, television and

interactive media to new heights.

Beyond direct support, named gifts also serve as a

source of inspiration and a permanent reminder

to the artists and scholars who will study at this

institution for generations to come. Day in and

day out, these students will gain their expertise in

facilities that bear the names of the individuals

and organizations who played leading roles in

developing the cinematic arts.

our aLLIancesCREATING A STATE-OF-THE-ART LEARNING ENVIRONMENT THROUGH DYNAMIC PARTNERSHIPS

Years of cinematic memories give way to new buildings and films duringdemolition of the old “stables” in 1982.

Dedicated in 2001, the Robert Zemeckis Center for Digital Arts opened asthe countryʼs first and only fully digital filmmaking training facility.

On October 4, 2006, filmmaker George Lucas did more than

make history through the Lucasfilm Foundation’s $175 million

gift to the School of Cinematic Arts. He also set forth a bold

challenge to the community at large to support the school

today and ensure the future of the art form for generations

to come.

That challenge plays out on two vital fronts:

facilities construction and endowment.

Of the total gift, $75 million is dedicated to erecting the primary

elements of the new Cinematic Arts Complex. Beyond this

generous initial funding, the 137,000-square-foot complex will

require an additional $25 million to finish, furnish and bring it

fully online by the December 2008 target completion date.

These funds are essential to a broad range of infrastructure

initiatives including screening rooms, production suites,

collaboration spaces, classrooms, offices, and the central

plaza café.

The second part of the Lucas donation, pledged at $100 million,

is dedicated to endowment. Endowment funds are vital to securing

the long-term viability of any institution. Prior to the Lucas gift,

Cinematic Arts supporters generously contributed to the

endowment, raising it from $6 million in 1991 to some $50

million in 2006. The $100 million Lucasfilm commitment will

bring that figure to $150 million, putting the school nearly

three-quarters of the way toward its overall $200 million

endowment goal. Through prudent management, the annual

yield from this fund will profoundly impact the school on

multiple fronts. Students will enjoy enhanced academic and

production support; faculty and staff activities will be

bolstered; facilities, equipment and technology will be kept

at top-notch; and alumni will receive guidance and support

as they transition from their academic to career pursuits.

The success of any cinematic arts endeavor—film, television,

and interactive—stems not from the acts of a single person,

but rather through the contributions of the greater community.

In making his gift to USC, George Lucas has set the school

firmly on its course and created an incredible opportunity for

others to be part of this extraordinary institution in the 21st

century and beyond.

Recognized nationally and internationally as a superb environment for the study and practice of

film, television, and interactive media, the School of Cinematic Arts draws thousands of students,

alumni, industry professionals, academics and other visitors to Los Angeles each year.

The current facilities on the USC campus have served the cinematic arts community well over the

course of the past quarter century. From animators to producers, directors to writers, cultural

theorists to new media artists, each year our students and faculty create over 250 hours of film

and television, along with scores of interactive projects, rivaling the output of many commercial

counterparts.

The past 25 years have also marked a time of phenomenal growth, both from a technological as

well as a programmatic vantage point. The 35,000-square-foot Robert Zemeckis Center for Digital

Arts opened in 2001 and we added new divisions in producing, writing, animation & digital arts,

and interactive media. We created new degrees, including two at the undergraduate and three

at the graduate level, in addition to four minors. We hired new faculty, many of whom are

holders of the school’s record-breaking 13 endowed chairs.

Occupancy in the existing instructional complex is currently at 120 percent of the original capacity.

Shortages in classrooms mean students have to take courses in non-cinema facilities scattered

throughout the USC campus. A lack of offices compels up to six adjunct instructors to share a single

room. Student projects place tremendous demand on soundstages and other production areas.

The 137,000-square-foot Cinematic Arts facility seeks to address these limitations head on,

providing ample space for creativity and community. In doing so, the School of Cinematic Arts

will continue to build on its foundation as the finest educational institution devoted to the

art of storytelling.

our FacILItIesSTATE-OF-THE-ART COMPLEX TO SET THE PACE FOR FILM, TELEVISION, AND INTERACTIVE MEDIA STUDIES

Since its begining, the School of Cinematic Arts has been looking to the future, alwaysexpanding its facilities, classes, divisions and staff. At the same time, we incorporatethe latest technologies, theories and ideas to encourage new projects that willentertain, insipire and educate for generations to come.
