Be Ready to Work

You’ll learn to write, direct, shoot, and produce your own films right away.

Our conservatory-style BFA program trains you in all aspects of filmmaking: directing, cinematography, editing, production, screenwriting, and film analysis.

Career Outcomes

More than 85% of alumni have found work in the film and television industries. You’ll join the ranks of Jessica Brunetto, Ilya Chaiken, Abel Ferrara, Hal Hartley, Azazel Jacobs, Lesli Klainberg, Chris Wedge, and more.

Intense and Rewarding

It’s professional film training, so expect to be immersed in all aspects of filmmaking on your way to becoming a skilled and well-informed filmmaker. Classes are small, so your film cohort becomes your system of support, collaboration, and critique.

Outstanding Faculty

Our faculty are working professionals themselves, so their instruction and insight are credible, timely, and relevant. Our proximity to New York City allows us to draw industry professionals as guest lecturers and instructors.
