will you be living in vancouver?

Most of the sangat lives in surrey which is about 20to 50 minutes away from vancouver depending on where you live in vancity

there are a lot of programs and smagams in the vancouver area. it is a very good place for sangat.

im not too sure..

I went to Toronto this summer as a holidayy I really thought it was a great place to practice religion overall

I might as well go to the Toronto Film School cuz i have family living in Toronto..but I have heard a lot about Vancouver's so I just needed opinions from people

Thanks so much!

Why would you even want to go to film school ?

I personally know of many many south asians in the UK from the previous generations that went to film school in New York after movies such as reservior dogs etc came out many years ago. To date, not one of them has made it in the film industry. If you have the money to burn, therefore, I would suggest you use it to buy a decent camera..and computer program...get a few friends and aquaintances of yours together...and just go ahead and shoot your idea.

But....if you really really just must go to fim school....why, in gods name are you thinking of Canada. If someone in Toronto feels he or she wants to go to film school he or she enrols in a New York school. Why on earth would you think it was worth your money and expense to go the other way and do it in Toronto ?

And....if Sikhs and gurdwaras are an important factor in your decision than why not enrol at the Met Film School in London ? They even have their studios next to the heart and soul of the Sikh community ; Southall...(Ealing Studios). That way, you might even be able to indulge your passion for films by researching the old Southall studios....which at one point...in the 1930's, was the United Kingdom's largest movie studio....and was instrumental in the development of Southall as a town.
