The New York Film Academy is designed for a new generation of storytellers: visual artists who share a passion for motion pictures and want to learn by making their own projects in a hands-on, intensive program.

Our students come from across the United States and all over the world to learn and work together in short-term workshops or one and two-year degree programs. In the creation of our curricula, we worked with faculty and professionals from around the world. We adapted the best ideas and elements from the leading degree programs and designed intensive and accelerated alternatives that provide a thorough grounding in the craft.
