Learn film production in Rhode Island directly from an industry pro, in the real world, not a classroom. One-on-one mentorship. Build Industry Connections and Gain Real Experience.
If you’re looking to break into the world of filmmaking, you might think that the only way to learn is by going to a traditional school. But what if we told you that there’s a better way? Here at the Rhode Island Film Connection, we offer a completely different approach to film education.

Our mentors in Rhode Island are experts in their industry, having worked on major film productions.
