    Overview

    The UCLA Film and Television Summer Institute shapes the filmmakers of tomorrow from the heart of Los Angeles, the entertainment capital of the world.

    The Film and Television Digital Filmmaking Summer Institute gives high school students from across the country and around the globe an unparalleled opportunity to study filmmaking at one of the most prestigious film schools in the world. 

    The program is a three-week, intensive production workshop designed for highly motivated rising high school juniors, seniors, and 2024 High School graduates.

    Students are immersed in the creativity and technique of cinematic storytelling and challenged to create entertaining narrative projects.

    • Students use the Department of Film, Television and Digital Media’s latest editing software and digital cinema cameras
    • Students work collaboratively on projects that are filmed as daylight exteriors on location across the UCLA campus
    • The program curriculum consists of a combination of lectures, practical camera exercises, guest speakers, and post-production labs
    • This workshop carries 3 units of UCLA college credit
    • Program activities include film screenings, guest speakers, and a visit to a Hollywood studio
    • All films will be screened in a state-of-the-art theater during the certificate ceremony at the end of the workshop. Friends and family are welcome!

    This is an intensive immersion experience for beginning filmmakers designed to form a basic understanding of the aesthetic, creative, and logistical decisions involved in making a film. While previous experience in digital filmmaking is not required, this is a disciplined and rigorous program and requires a significant time commitment. Please refer to the program schedule for details.
