From Michael Gandy @ Young Film Academy Young Film Academy (YFA) is not your usual filmmaking teaching provider. YFA founders James Walker and Ed Boase are teaching young filmmakers and making waves in the professional film world too, with their award-winning film production company, Magma Pictures - sister company to Young Film Academy.
The Young Film Academy (YFA) is the UK’s leading educational filmmaking provider for schools in both the secondary and state sectors. Young Film Academy is a unique teaching organisation - directly linked to the UK film industry. Recently YFA have been working with the film industry’s education body, Film Education, getting the winners of the Young Film Critic of the Year Award (held at a star studded ceremony at BAFTA) behind the camera in their schools.
Every year Young Film Academy helps over 5000 young people in more than 50 schools produce their first digital films. Their unique and hugely popular practical filmmaking programme, The One Day Film School (www.onedayfilmschool.co.uk), is opening student and teachers’ eyes alike to the possibilities of digital filmmaking within schools and the curriculum. Young Film Academys’ mission is simple: to get young people making films. The future of the British film industry depends on it. | |
