About the NFTS
First established in 1971, the National Film and Television School (NFTS) has evolved to become a leading global institution, developing some of Britain and the world’s top creative talent. In 2018, the NFTS was awarded both the BAFTA for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema and the Queen's Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education.
As one of the leading film schools in the world, the NFTS operates like a major studio, with state-of-the-art production facilities that are essential for creating outstanding content for film, TV, games, animation, design, and much more. It’s a truly exciting and transformational place to kickstart your creative career!
With a graduate employment rate of over 90%, the NFTS runs more behind-the-camera courses than any other film school in the world, as well as numerous short courses, including core craft areas such as directing and cinematography, as well as specialisms including script supervision, production accounting and games design and development.
Supported by key industry partnerships, students benefit from world class tuition, state-of-the-art facilities and an outstanding programme of exclusive Masterclasses. From your first day, you’ll be fully immersed in making content and benefit from mentors, guest speakers and once-in-a-lifetime talks delivered by a steady stream of acclaimed film, TV and games makers.
Being a student at the NFTS is a transformative experience, offering creative freedom and boundless opportunities for the film, television and games makers who choose to study with us. Our wide range of courses are some of the most exciting and innovative in the world, enabling you to channel your passion into real world skills.
