Program Description
New York University's Graduate Film Program is an intensive three-year conservatory which trains students in the art of cinematic storytelling. It focuses on helping writer/directors develop a narrative voice and the technical virtuosity to express that voice in cinema. Students learn by doing -- writing scripts, directing and producing films and exercises, shooting and crewing on each other's projects. Every student has an opportunity to make a minimum of five movies while at NYU. T
The Graduate Film Program encompasses both fiction and documentary filmmaking. Each semester, courses in screenwriting, directing, aesthetics, acting, cinematography, editing, producing, and sound design compliment specific filmmaking projects that provide hands-on training. Students are well-prepared to transition into the professional world with a range of technical skills which often lead to employment in the industry, a reel of short films which can serve as calling cards, and a feature film script.
