Columbia College Chicago Film & Video M.F.A.
Program Description
The program is dedicated to developing screen storytellers by fostering the individual filmmaker’s personal voice and vision and cultivating the leadership role of the director. This writer/director program teaches authorship by asking the student filmmaker to create work that is authentic, diverse, and invokes the human experience. Each student creates a body of work in a collaborative environment that will help prepare for a career in the film and video profession. This 60-credit M.F.A. program immerses the student in rigorous coursework in writing, directing, theory, and production as preparation for their thesis film.
The MFA Program is looking for talented individuals who have stories to tell and the creative vision and the desire to express them in the film or video media. We also look for qualities such as commitment, maturity, tenacity, self-awareness, and the ability to collaborate. We welcome people from other fields; filmmaking experience is not necessary. We accept 12-14 students each year for fall admission.
