Digital Filmmaking With The New York Film Academy

The Digital Film School of the New York Film Academy is one of the most hands-on and intensive, college credited film schools in the world; teaching thousands of teens, young adults and professionals the craft of filmmaking each year.

Since opening in 1992 in New York City, our philosophy has been “learning by doing”.  Over the years our philosophy has earned us a sound reputation among the film industries elite.  Top filmmakers such as Steven Spielberg, Peter Bogdanovich, Tim Robbins, and Stephen Fears have sent their children to study filmmaking with us.

Today, the New York Film Academy has thousands of graduates who come from all over the world to study at our schools in Los Angeles, Abu Dhabi and, our original location, in New York City.  Our philosophy has not changed, but the technology we use  has.

Students learning digital filmmaking at any of our schools work with the latest in digital film equipment, software and techniques. From our Mac Pro Computer Lab running the latest versions of Final Cut Pro Editing Suite, Maya and ZBrush to equipment that includes,

•    Panasonic DVX100 24p Digital Video Camera
