The Film School has been running successful courses for over ten years and the new owners – Brighton Film Productions – want to build on that foundation and offer a wider selection of courses in film production, screenwriting and acting for camera. The extensive range of film equipment already in the school has been expanded to include a brand new suite of the latest Apple Macs, which will be installed with all the latest industry standard software. These new resources will compliment the impressive existing facilities already in the school, such as the Mitchell Super 35mm camera from Hollywood. www.brightonfilmschool.co.uk
