The Indianapolis Film Connection also provides an extensive inventory of equipment for use during their coursework. From cameras and lenses to lighting rigs and sound kits, it is essential that filmmakers have access to top-notch tools if they want to produce professional quality films.

You’re here to learn about how films are made today, how to use the gear during professional productions, and how to get the most out of everyone on set or on location. This isn’t a classroom, it’s real life.
