Hi everyone I'm new here so I don't really know where to actually post this, I just hope this is the right place.

I have some trouble making up my mind in order to go to Japan next year.

My plan is to hopefully graduate next year around May or June and then move abroad to Japan. I want to follow a languagecourse there for over a period of one year, and after that If i have succesfully learned the ability to read and havea decent conversation continue my study in Tokyo in the direction of films.

Now this is just a global idea/plan, but I've come across a few problems.
I've noticed that there are literallly 1000's of language schools in Japan, so im stuck on what to choose, some even provide studentaccomodation and the schools that are somewhat cheaper don't.

I also received a link from a member on this forum for a language school in Japan ( http://www.wle-japan.com/ ) and if you click on tuition fees etc its pretty expensive to follow a language course with accomodation.

Is it possible or does any language school where one can follow a language course, also have the possibility to work next to it to make some money for any expenses like buying food or clothes?

I like to study in the direction of moviemaking and was wondering if there is such kinda college in Japan for foreigners aswell? I heard it was hard to find one thats why i thought of learning the japanese language first :)

Anyways any help would be very much appreciated. t.i.a.

i heard it is rather competitive and challenging to enroll, but tokyo national university of fine arts and music provides you with Film Production Course, with takeshi kitano as a professer there.

Wow - learn the language enough in one year to be able to enter film making. . .

Lofty goal.
