Film Production School in Augusta

Don’t Spend More on your Film Education if You Don’t Have to

Augusta, Georgia is located on the eastern side of Georgia at the South Carolina border, with an approximate population of nearly 200,000 people–but set in a metro area of over half a million. While film schools are scarce in Augusta (except for ours, of course), there are several film or television production companies in this area, which is where we place you for film school. Additionally, Georgia is a very film-friendly area, offering incentives of up to 30 percent in tax credits for films shot here; in fact, hundreds of professional productions take place in Georgia every year. Augusta even has its own film office to help facilitate filmmakers with their needs. If you are considering a career in filmmaking as a film director, film prodcer, or film editor, Augusta provides a surprising alternative to relocating to other hotspots like New York, L.A., or Florida.
