About us

New York Film Academy

The New York Film Academy was founded in 1992 by Jerry Sherlock, a former film, television and theatre producer. Their philosophy is based on a "learning by doing" approach, which every curriculum stems from. They offer an intensive, hands-on, and total immersion approach to learning. The Film Academy is also honored to be the film school of choice for many Hollywood filmmakers, actors, and figures from the entertainment and media world. Every year, hundreds of Chinese students join the NYFA summer camps.

Since 2016, the New York Film Academy has been working with ASEEDER to offer high school film programs at the Beijing Film Academy. Chinese students will be able to enjoy some of the best American film education in China.

Teaching Methodology

Courses given in English

Offer an intensive, hands-on, total immersion approach to learning

Teaching philosophy

Filmmaking needs lots of knowledge. The combination of that knowledge is what makes the New York Film Academy different. In this course, students not only learn how to use cameras, lights, film editing software, they also gain relevant film knowledge.

In line with the mission and philosophy of the New York Film Academy, this program is intensive and focused on hands-on learning. In the NYFA film camps, each student writes, shoots, directs and edits his or her own films. Our film camps are designed for people with little or no experience in making films. This program focuses on the fundamental elements of visual storytelling that enable the participants to direct their own projects.
