Reviews of National Film and Television School
I did the 16mm and 35mm camera course for a week. You get what you pay for, and more, but not everything as there just isn't enough time to teach you everything they know. With other words, your tutors are extremely experienced and are from the industry. Taking their time off between productions to come and teach you. So stay focussedor you miss information. I personally give this course 5/5 because of the sheer amount of knowledge and practice they pass on to you and their helpfull but still industry mentality.
The NFTS is a very professional institution. One specialises in a particular field of study (eg. Directing, Cinematography, Editing, Sound, Music, etc.) The school wants to educate competent industry professionals and at the same time maintaining a degree creativity. In my opinion, a good combination of craft and art. Committment is a must. The courses are full-time and require a high level of attention.
