In NYFA’s 1 & 2-Year programs, aspiring visual storytellers get practical training and experience in their chosen field. Our conservatory-style programs help students improve their creative and technical skills. NYFA’s faculty of industry professionals, provide ongoing mentorship, as students create their own original work for their reels or portfolios.
In NYFA’s short-term workshops, students get the most hands-on experience and training possible, in the shortest amount of time. They start working on creative projects from day one. In a supportive and team-focused setting, students learn basic skills from expert teachers while exploring their craft.
NYFA’s “hands-online” workshops are active learning experiences. Students join from home and take part in every class. They interact with teachers and classmates, and get hands-on experience creating original work, which is the foundation of all NYFA workshops, whether in person or online.
