Film

Make films that move, make change, tell stories.

The School of Film offers a unique educational environment where students are immersed in the study of film as an art form, a dynamic cultural force, and a means of expressive storytelling. Classroom and filmmaking experiences are supplemented by engaged one-on-one work with the film faculty, to establish a rigorous hands-on production experience and an intensive study of the history and theory of cinema.
