You can see just from these few examples that there are lots of opportunities to make industry connections right here in Florida—and by putting you in the heart of the action as a working extern, the Film Connection can put you in touch with these opportunities like no other film school can. We have mentors available in Miami, Orlando, Pensacola, Tallahassee, Tampa, Jacksonville, and many other cities throughout Florida, so you can learn where you live without having to relocate—unless, of course, you want to.
Our film training program can be tailored to your personal goals and interests. If you want to be a screenwriter, we can pair you with a professional screenwriter. If you want to be an editor, we pair you with an editor. If you want to direct films in Hollywood, we pair you with a filmmaker who guides you step-by-step in the development of your own film idea—and when you graduate, we arrange for you to pitch your film to REAL HOLLYWOOD EXECUTIVES! Can you name one other film school that does this? (Answer: you can’t. We’re the only one.)
