More About Camp
Each summer, New York Film Academy Summer Camps give hundreds of high school students an unforgettable and transformative experience in Filmmaking, Acting and 3-D Animation. The New York Film Academy high school camps are designed for students with little or no previous filmmaking, acting or animation experience. They are hands-on intensive workshops that fully immerse students in the craft of writing, directing, casting, shooting, acting in, editing, and animating their own films.
The New York Film Academy is honored to be the film school of choice of many Hollywood filmmakers and their families, including the son of Steven Spielberg, the son of former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan and the sister of director Luc Besson (Fifth Element, La Femme Nikita).
We have chosen some of the most prestigious and inspiring locations in the world to hold our camps including, The Dalton School in New York City, Universal Studios in Los Angeles, Oxford University in England, Disney-MGM Studios in Orlando, Florida; Harvard and Princeton Universities, Paris, France; and Florence, Italy.
We offer 1, 3, 4 and 6-week filmmaking, acting and 3-D animation workshops.
The camps at each location are closely supervised while providing a nurturing environment that encourages students to take creative risks. As part of the camp experience, students take part in a range of extracurricular activities and field trips particular to each location.
Students reside in dormitories, resort hotels, and residential apartment complexes depending on the location. Dining facilities are offered at all of our U.S. locations; at our overseas locations, our students choose from local eateries and may cook their own meals. Housing is either on campus or conveniently located to our classroom facilities.
Quality adult supervision of the New York Film Academy high school camps is our highest concern. All of our workshops are fully supervised. Our counselors are 21 years and older, and many have their undergraduate degrees in filmmaking or acting. Counselors reside in the dormitories or in the hotel rooms adjacent to the students depending on the location.
