Film Production School in Compton

Production School in Compton, California

We took that old stale classroom concept, rebuilt and upgraded it by putting your classroom in a professional recording studio. Then we emptied out all the other students and left only YOU and YOUR TEACHER (yay for one-on-one learning!) who happens to be a pro film producer (with killer credits) to train you privately (at your pace, full time, part time, nights or weekends available).

Called “The Hub” because of its central location in Los Angeles County, Compton occupies just over 10 square miles. Anthony Anderson was born here, Kevin Costner grew up here, and area high schools produced athletes such as NBA all-star DeMar DeRozan and NFL Super Bowl Champion Richard Sherman.

But it was N.W.A. that put Compton on the map for most of the United States. “Straight Outta Compton” is widely regarded as one of the most influential albums in the history of hip hop. The album was recently added to the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for its cultural significance. The 2015 American biographical drama Straight Outta Compton enabled today’s millennials to see what inspired the group’s lyrics and witness how they went on to change hip-hop forever.

While the album reflected what it was like to grow up in gang- and drug-infested streets of Compton, the album soon found its way to the suburbs. Solo albums, acting, and producing followed as the former N.W.A. crew members began their entertainment domination. Dr. Dre has a reported worth of over $770 million.
