From Fellini's La Dolce Vita to the HBO series ROME, Cinecittà and Rome itself have been the living, breathing center of the film industry in Italy.

Rome is one of the most extraordinary cities in the world, unsurpassed in its illustrious history and grandeur, which is written in the architecture throughout the city. Buildings and monuments from ancient Rome still stand amongst two thousand years of art and culture.

Cinecittà, is aptly named, it has made an enormous impact on the world of cinema and continues to add to its legacy. We are thrilled to hold our programs in these hallowed studios. Students will have the opportunity of shooting on Cinecittà film sets.

As in our programs at Universal Studios in Los Angeles, students will have the unique opportunity of learning and practicing their craft in the heart of a world-class film studio. To learn more about Cinecittà and its history please click the link below to download a brochure.
