I'm graduating this May with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and want to go to a college in my hometown for SFX makeup next year. For someone wanting to get into the SFX business, what would your suggestions, tips, and must-do's be?

What's the learning/teaching atmosphere for the younger people and children, and what sort of specifics do they recite and instill? Is it filled with the same hateful language that they use in the pickets?

Awesome, thanks!

Also, would you say being or going to L.A. would be advantageous?
