New York Film Academy is happy to bring our high school Camp Programs back to London in the summer of 2008. London enters the 21st century with a reputation as the place to be. With an incredibly active theater and cinema culture, it is the ideal home for the New York Film Academy programs in England. In the midst of an exciting modern revival, London invites the developing artist to join in its bustling energy. With such new attractions as the Tate Modern, filled with the avant garde sculptures of Louise Bourgeois or the sleek new financial center of the revitalized Docklands with its ultra-modern railway system, London stands out as a city on the creative edge. The more traditional sites remain as well, of course: Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Regent�s Park, and the British Museum, to name but a few.

BLOOMSBURY

The New York Film Academy facility in London is located in Bloomsbury, an area historically associated with education and the arts. In the heart of Bloomsbury, only steps away from the Film Academy, is the British Museum - a must-see for visitors to the area. Also in Bloomsbury are University College London and the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. Some of the most beautiful and well-manicured parks in London including Russel Square, Bedford Square and Bloomsbury Square can be found in Bloomsbury.

CURRICULUM

In the 16mm and digital film camps, each student writes, produces, directs, and digitally edits his or her own films, and rotates among crew positions when his or her classmates shoot. The acting program will consist of both traditional and nontraditional acting classes, plus on-location shooting.

EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

In London, the past and the future collide to result in a brilliant present filled with possibility. Students can take a location tour aboard a boat on the Thames from that highlights the history of London and end in Greenwich where they will find the atmosphere of Old London. Of course, trips will be arranged to see notable landmarks including the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace. And for students enrolled in our longer programs, we will arrange to see fabulous theatre on the west end.
