Introduction

Using state-of-the-art equipment at the school is an essential part of the learning process. Through experience we have devised a syllabus which endeavours to strike the right balance between essential theoretical learning and the mastering of "hands on" skills. While creativity is at the heart of all production, today more than ever the familiarity and command of complex digital equipment is an essential component of modern day filmmaking.

It is therefore the school’s policy to keep abreast of new technology while still maintaining traditional 16mm, super 16mm and 35mm shoots. The challenges of the industry must be understood by students capable of rapidly adjusting to change. The school’s privileged partnership with the industry is a valuable source of information aiding the future choices of film and TV equipment at the school.

The school’s investment policy focuses on the latest digital technology and new media including web, podcast, VOD, mobile devices.
