Specializing in Digital Media - 21st Century Technology
DFA is the only film school in New York that specializes in 100% digital media education. Why is that important? Because unlike other film schools, DFA puts all of its resources and focus into digital film and media programs. If you are interested in digital film or media training, Digital Film Academy is the place to be.
Unlimited Lab Time
Only DFA has unlimited use of equipment and edit/computer labs during courses. How else can a person become proficient at a technical skill? This is the key to your success and it's in your hands... so use it!
Additional Edit Lab Time after Course Completion
When you enroll in a Digital Film Academy Filmmaking Program or Digital Media Course, you will receive two to four weeks of additional edit lab time after course completion to finish working on any class projects and to develop your reel. The additional edit lab time during and after your course equals more practice, better proficiency and skill development.
One-Year Production Membership for Graduates
DFA graduates receive a One Year Production Membership after completing a digital filmmaking program. What does this mean? Continued access to DFA equipment and the facility at discount student prices. The Membership has been used by alumni to continue their training, shoot their next projects, and begin earning money as independent filmmakers! With the Membership, DFA graduates have a full production company at their fingertips! For more information on the Membership, visit DFA online at www.digitalfilmacademy.com and click on “Membership.”
Instructors are Professionals
DFA instructors are educators who are working professionals in the film, television, video and media industry. An experienced professional in the field teaches each subject.
Hands-On Programs and Courses to Achieve Your Goals
Whether you are interested in taking a short digital media course to find out if film or digital media is the career choice for you, or a full-time program to gain the necessary skills to begin working in the industry, or whether you need to create a portfolio to apply for a Master's program at university, DFA has a program to fit your goals, schedule and budget. What's more, DFA's programs are immersive and hands-on. Students have ample opportunities to work with equipment and to advance their skills by completing digital film projects.
DFA is Serious About Your Training
As a DFA graduate of a Digital Filmmaking program or workshop, you have the option of re-taking one class or subject. This is one of the many ways DFA supports your training if you experience difficulty grasping a subject or missed a class. DFA can schedule you to audit a class or subject at no extra fee within a future course date.
Continued Support for Graduate's Career Goals
In addition to the One Year Production Membership, DFA supports students' career goals by providing students with more opportunities for growth after course completion. DFA graduates receive opportunities to enhance their skills on other DFA student films and projects after graduation! In this creative and technical industry, hands-on training is key.
Small Class Sizes
Most DFA classes average between 6 to 12 students. This means that you will have more hands-on time with equipment and more one-on-one time with your instructor.
Location, Location, Location
DFA is conveniently located just one block from the world famous Times Square entertainment district in New York City. It is the crossroad of the entertainment industry and the best place to learn digital film and media! |
