The New York Film Academy was founded on the philosophy that "learning by doing" combined with best industry practices is more valuable than years of theoretical study for filmmakers and actors. This educational model allows students to achieve more in less time then at any other university, school or institute in the world.

NYFA's accelerated two year fine arts degree are structured for students who want intensive training from award winning faculty using professional facilities and equipment starting their first day of classes; better preparing them for a career in motion picture and entertainment industries.

For those that are considering college or looking to sharpen their skills, our film and acting schools offer evening filmmaking workshops, and acting workshops. We also host summer film camps and acting camps throughout the world that are designed for high school students. (less info)
