You’ll have the opportunity to get real world instruction from SFCC’s film school faculty, who have experience as working professionals in the entertainment and media fields, including cinematography, sound, lighting, grip, screenwriting, documentary filmmaking, editing, visual effects, directing, and acting. They’ll help you gain hands-on experience working with state-of-the-art, industry standard cameras, lighting equipment, sound and grip gear as well as powerful editing suites, a recording studio, a green screen room and a sound stage.

Earn an AA or AAS degree in Film, or you can enhance your knowledge through hands-on learning by pursuing a certificate in Audio Production, Film Production, Post-Production, Documentary and Non-Fiction Filmmaking, Digital Cinematography, Independent Filmmaking, or Film Technicians Training.

High school students interested in film can gain basic technical training in the film industry by completing classes and certificates through New Mexico’s Dual Credit program. Classes are offered both at local high schools and at SFCC’s main campus.
