During the last week of the program, we will fly you out to L.A. to pitch your project to an industry executive who will give you the kind of feedback that even insiders don’t get. Who knows?

Located in the Florida panhandle, Tallahassee is the state capital of Florida, hosting a combined metro population of around 360,00 people. Tallahassee is also a major college town, home to Florida State University and several other prominent colleges. While the number of film schools in Tallahassee pales in comparison to other hotspots like Los Angeles, New York or Orlando, the city has served as a filming location for major motion pictures, and several film or television production companies make their home here. Tallahassee is also home to its own popular annual film festival, and lots of short films are made here on a regular basis. If you want a filmmaking career as a film director, film producer, film editor, or cameraman, but prefer a smaller locale to the craziness of the typical filmmaking hotspots, Tallahasee is a surprising alternative to relocation.   

Some of the movies that have been filmed in Tallahassee and surrounding regions include Something Wild, Night Falls on Manhattan, The Truman Show, G.I. Jane, Lonely Hearts, and even classics like Creature from the Black Lagoon and Rebel Without a Cause.

FILM CONNECTION Film School of Tallahassee offers an inexpensive, six month course that hooks you up with a working film or television professional who serves as your personal instructor and mentor, giving you hands-on experience with real film or video shoots. Along the way, you will make vital connections with other professionals in the film business, the very people who do the hiring. Over 70% of FILM CONNECTION graduates get hired before or shortly after graduation. You deserve to check out our film school alternative and see what we can do for you!
