Go to school in the city of collaboration, innovation and ideas. San Francisco is a mash-up of cultures and ideas. From Chinatown to The Marina, Haight & Ashbury to the Muir Woods across the bay, it's a city where people come together to express their voice. Your creativity won't just live here, it will thrive. The school is just a block away from the very popular and very funky Polk Street restaurant and bar scene, and only a quick MUNI ride to places to live and explore in the city. Whatever inspires you, whether it's a stroll through a farmers' market to find the perfect avocado, a secret house party featuring your favorite DJ, or a quiet cup of espresso and a good book, you'll find a place for it and people to enjoy it with. Learn the skills you need to get your dream job. Develop a network of industry contacts. Our instructors have the jobs you dream of having. They come from all the top advertising agencies, design firms and companies in San Francisco: Adobe, Goodby Silverstein, Tribal DDB, FCB, Pereira O-Dell, R/GA, Google, Razorfish... In class you'll collaborate with other students (writers, art directors, strategists, designers and coders) and create things you didn't know possible. Every assignment has the potential to be your next portfolio piece or the beginning of your first business.
