The New York Film Academy is an international film and acting school offering hands-on programs for individuals of all ages and experiences. Our Degree, 1 and 2 Year Conservatory programs, Short-Term Workshops and Summer Camps are designed equally for beginners as well as people with experience. Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese and Susan Sarandon are three Hollywood luminaries among countless industry icons that have chosen to send their sons and daughters to study at the New York Film Academy. However, it is important to note that some of the best work coming out of the New York Film Academy is from students with absolutely no connection to the entertainment business.

Boys and girls will have the opportunity to learn the in's and out's of filmmaking and acting, while operating state of the art, professional-grade equipment. Whether it's behind the camera, performing in a scene or shooting beautiful images, students are immediately immersed in their craft from day one. Students come from all over the world to feel the energy of this exhilarating, fast-paced industry, but most importantly, to have fun. Teens (ages 14-17) and tweens (ages 10-13) can choose from a variety of summer camps, spanning one to six weeks in length. Whether choosing to enroll in Acting for Film, Filmmaking, Screenwriting, Musical Theatre, Digital Photography, Music Video, 3D Animation, Video Game Design or Broadcast Journalism, students all strive to do their best independently and collaboratively.
