We are now closer and even easier to reach
You used to be hindered by fact that all major film schools are concentrated in large cities. And so were your opportunities. However, you now have a chance to study anywhere you like, at any time you choose. A complex training program will provide you with the knowledge that no study-books alone can provide, as only a mix of theory and practice teaches you to the full. It is equally the right way to learn from mistakes of others.
Practicing film industry professional Josh Folan will give you full theoretical insight and will take you step-by-step through the process of making your first feature film. You will be able to team up with your instructor and get valuable comments about your work. You will also benefit from the chance to share your ideas with an instructor. This will teach you sound criticism, which is crucial for your every creative task.
