LA Film School gives out associate degrees, and it's reputation isn't at the top of the charts (it's a fairly new school, and just started giving out actual degrees a couple years ago)... so it may be better to try to get a Bachelor's in Film from a reputable school in that field (UCLA, UT-Austin, etc.) You do learn a lot there, however.. and the networking is very good (which is important for someone trying to get into that business). All the professor's are those that are in the business, so they know what's going on. My friend goes there, he has yet to graduate so I can say as to how things are after graduation.. but he currently has a job at Universal Studios working on sets. It's not his long-term goal, but it will help with the networking and get him in... and it was one of his professor's that hooked him up with the job. So they are willing to help you in the ways they can. It's hard to me to recommend to you what to do here, since with film you really either have it or you don't... so I just thought I'd share what I do know and maybe help you out a little through that.

Go to the University of Southern California (if you can get in): it has the best film program in all of the US.
