The New York Film Academy attended the National Coalition Against Censorship’s annual dinner honoring Dan Rather, Ruth Gruber, Caroline Hirsch, Anthony Lewis, and Barney Rosset, and awarded two one-week scholarships to the winners of the 2008 Youth Free Expression Network’s “My Vote For Free Speech” Film Contest.
In the film and acting business what you know is as important as who you know. Just ask any big name producer, director, actor or actress how they got into the business.

The founding of the first accredited film school in the Middle East, NYFA-Abu Dhabi, will create a unique platform for the nurturing of young creative talent and develop a vibrant film industry for the region centred in Abu Dhabi. This collaboration between ADACH and New York film Academy is the first initiative of its kind in this part of the world.
The New York Film Academy is the largest film school and international centre for film training in the world. It maintains two principal campuses, in New York and Los Angeles, and has other training locations around the globe.
The NYFA was founded in 1992 as a practical, total immersion alternative to the traditional classroom-based film education. It was founded on the belief that the highest quality education in filmmaking should be accessible to anyone with the drive and ambition to make films.
Students at NYFA-Abu Dhabi will learn about all aspects of the film industry – creative and technical. Courses will include the film industry, acting, scenario writing, 3D animation, production and documentary film making. Class size is limited to enhance interaction between students and staff, and visits from celebrities from the world of cinema will bring the reality of the film industry into the classroom.
This exciting collaboration between ADACH and NYFA will play a pivotal role in the development of film-making skills and enrich the cultural life of the Gulf and Middle East for years to come.

Known for shooting some of the latest blockbuster films such as Jumper, Angels & Demons, Guerilla and Crossing the Line, the RED HD camera is a digital film makers dream. Just ask students at the Digital Film School at the New York Film Academy.
The New York Film Academy School of Film and Acting is proud to be the first and only film school to own and make available to students the RED HD camera during a new two year Digital Filmmaking conservatory program at their New York City and Los Angeles locations.
NYFA owns six RED HD cameras that students can sign out for their film projects throughout their second year of study in the Filmmaking and Digital Filmmaking programs. The camera has been well received by NYFA faculty and students. “Being able to shoot with the RED camera now will give me experience that a small amount of students will have because no other school gives their students the access to this camera like NYFA does.” says one student.
“Typical high-end HD camcorders have 2.1M pixel sensors and record with 3:1:1 color sub-sampled video at up to 30fps. RED offers the Mysterium ™ Super 35mm cine sized (24.4×13.7mm) sensor, which provides 4K (up to 30 fps), 3K (up to 60 fps) and 2K (up to 120 fps) capture, and all this with wide dynamic range and color space in 12 bit native RAW. At 4K, that’s more than 5 times the amount of information available every second and a vastly superior recording quality. In addition, you get the same breathtaking Depth of Field and selective focus as found in film cameras using equivalent 35mm P/L mount lenses. Mysterium ™ boasts greater than 66db Dynamic Range thanks to its large 29 sq. micron pixels. And 12,065,000 pixels deliver resolution that can only be called Ultra High Definition.”
