london film academy
Our story began in 2001 when our search for an ideal film course led us to
create our own boutique film school in a converted church in Fulham Broadway,
London. London Film Academy is now internationally recognised as an innovative
film school that offers more than just an education in film. We produce
world-class filmmakers who thrive in an environment that emulates real world
realities. We are a school that is dedicated to creating the best of the best
while adopting a hands-on approach and ensuring we always keep to our ethos of
creating a collaborative, friendly and inclusive learning environment at the
core of everything we do. Our multi-disciplinary approach emulates the
hard-working realities within all facets of the film and television industries
and allows you to develop into an informed and responsible filmmaker, honing
your craft in small groups, within a collaborative, nurturing environment. Our
goal is to make film training accessible. Most of all, we believe that if you’ve
got a head for film, then we can teach you how to approach the industry and give
it all you’ve got. And with more than 95% of our diploma graduates working in
the industry within three months of finishing with us, our courses speak for
themselves. Since our inception we have nurtured and produced hundreds of
world-class filmmakers who have gone on to make their own independent projects
and work on some of the biggest UK productions including: 'Star Wars: The Last
Jedi', 'Justice League', 'Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald', 'Rogue
One: A Star Wars Story' and 'Alien Covenant' - to name but a few. LFA is more
than just a film school, it's a place where learning is doing. Our goal is to
make film training accessible. As a not-for-profit trust, we offer financially
assisted places with all-inclusive course fees, award-winning tutors and access
to the very latest equipment, software and facilities. We welcome applicants who
are typically proactive, creative and dedicated team players, from across the
globe and with any amount of experience. We will help you to become the
filmmaker you’ve always aspired to be. Whether you’re looking for an
undergraduate, postgraduate, or specialised short course, we cover every
filmmaking discipline from fiction to documentary-making, screenwriting to
producing. Recognised as a centre of excellence, we are registered with Office
for Students (OfS), reviewed by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher
Education, and partner with some of the most original and forward-thinking
voices in the creative industry today. We work with some incredible talent and
industry professionals, and ensure our courses are current and
industry-relevant. We boast guest speakers including the likes of Jan Harlan
(‘A.I. Artificial Intelligence’), Hossein Amini (‘Drive’), Steven Knight ('Peaky
Blinders'), Pawel Pawlikowski ('Ida'), Sam Bain (‘Fresh Meat’) and Phil Meheux
(‘Casino Royale’) to name a few. And even our regular tutors have an impressive
combined track record and continue to produce numerous high-profile feature
films, TV dramas, shorts, documentaries, corporate films, music promos and
commercials. You’ll learn from the best in your pursuit for filmmaking
excellence. We are unique in being able to nurture on-going productions by
