List of film schools

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Elizabethleemonroy (talk | contribs) at 05:31, 2 March 2016 (→Italy: Florence International Film School has been operating a film school in Florence, Italy since 2005 http://www.florenceinternationalfilmschool.com). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

The following is a list of film schools grouped by country. Around the world, there are institutions both public and private dedicated to teaching film either as a department in a larger university, or as a stand-alone entity. There is also a distinction between film programs in existing private colleges and art schools, and purely for-profit institutions. The popularity of film and television production courses has exponentially increased since the 1980s and there are now more than 1,200 known institutions offering such courses around the world. Mumbai Digital Films Academy at Goregaon (East), is ranked the best among private film schools in Mumbai.[1] However, of these less than half (608) offered courses with a practical film making element which lasted a year or more. Collectively these schools ran more than 2,600 individual courses. The remaining schools (642) offer short courses or did not run courses in 2015.[2]
