Learn film production in Indiana directly from an industry pro, in the real world, not a classroom. One-on-one mentorship. Build Industry Connections and Gain Real Experience.
If you’re an aspiring filmmaker in Indiana, your pathway to Hollywood begins right here! The Indiana Film Connection stands out from other film schools as the only school that trains you in the heart of the action, placing you as a working extern in a real film production company near where you live. Instead of learning in some stale classroom, you’ll learn on-the-job, participating in real productions under the personal supervision and instruction of a real film professional who trains you one-on-one!
Consider this: if you want to be a cinematographer, screenwriter, film editor, film director or producer, how do you get started? Other film schools like to tell you that it starts by paying their expensive tuition and sitting in their classrooms—but the people who actually make a living in this business know better. They know, as we do, that the way to break into film is to get on the set, to get involved, to get real work experience and make connections. You can’t do that in a classroom—you can only do that by working in the industry. That’s where we put you, from day one.
Some of our graduates have gone on to become film directors, script writers, and production company owners. Others are creating and producing their own films across genres like documentary, drama, comedy, action, and animation
