Welcome to Valencia Film School
Our Film Program is Associates in Sciences degree. The curriculum is production intensive, focusing on aesthetic and technical training in Film Production. Emphasis is placed upon developing production-related skills in the following areas: camera, grip, electrical, sound, editing, set construction and production skills (i.e Production Management, Assistant Directing & Production Assisting). Prerequisite courses are designed to develop fundamental technical skills and broaden future placement possibilities. Our program is expected to be 2 years for full time students and 3 to 4 years for part time students. We offer a limited access technical certificate for students, a bachelor’s degree is preferred for those who apply for the and/or industry experience.

Production Requirements & Workshops for Advanced Courses:
Our Mission
Our unique program partners with professional film productions (feature films, pilots, series, music videos, etc.). On those projects our students work as crew members under the professional film crew as production assistants, electricians, grips, assistant camera technicians, set dressers, sound utility etc. This is an additional networking opportunity for our students. Once students are on those productions, that is the class. Productions could range from a 3 day production, a week production or a couple weeks, if it’s a feature film. Students work 12 – 14 hours a day on set (meals provided).
We also have various workshops that will be included in Film Production I – III courses including Directing, Assistant Directing, Production Design, Location Management, Script Supervising, Post-Production Sound and many more.
