The Sidney Poitier New American Film School

In the last 15 years, the film program in ASU’s Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts has thrived, and with the launch of the new school and new facilities, ASU positions itself as a new kind of film school. Unlike many other top film schools, which measure themselves by who they exclude, The Sidney Poitier New American Film School is inclusive. ASU's 700 undergraduate film majors represent the creative diversity of our country, with more than 40 percent of its students from under-represented backgrounds.
