At the New York Film Academy’s film school, faculty members and curriculum are focused on providing students with the real world know-how to help them achieve their goals. These achievements are the result of their hard work, perseverance, talent and circumstances. Below are some of the positions and networks in which our alumni have worked:
Learn Producing Online at NYFA
In NYFA’s online producing workshops, students gain an introduction to the business and management of creating film, television, new media, and creative content. Under the virtual guidance and mentorship of our experienced faculty of producers, students study a number of topics related to Producing, including creative and line producing, project management, budgeting, scheduling, planning, marketing, and distribution, as well as the process of creating a film, film festival strategies, and entertainment law.
Based on the program length, students will be exposed to different levels of basic filmmaking skills in lighting, sound, and editing. Students will also get practical experience in presentation, pitching, and creative collaboration. No prerequisites or prior experience is required to attend.
Producing Programs
To accomodate all schedules, we offer online full-time and part-time producing workshops. The longer full-time and part-time workshops offer students more exposure to hands-on elements and experience. Please note that required software for the workshops will be an additional cost.
