Learn film production in Texas directly from an industry pro, in the real world, not a classroom. One-on-one mentorship. Build Industry Connections and Gain Real Experience.
There’s no other film school in Texas that can afford you a more direct connection to the film industry than the Texas Film Connection. Why? Because no other film school puts you in the heart of the action like we can! With our unique program, you won’t spend a single day in a college or trade school classroom. Instead, you’ll be on-the-job and on the set from day one, studying as an extern one-on-one with a seasoned film industry professional. While those other film students are wasting time in the classrooms, you’ll be gaining valuable work experience and making lots of connections. By the time those students come around knocking on the doors, you’ll already be inside the door!
Whether you plan on becoming a cinematographer, film director, editor, producer or screenwriter, we’ve got a mentor that can help you focus on your interests. Whether you live in Amarillo, Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Lubbock, Corpus Christi or anywhere in between, your path to Hollywood starts in Texas!
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
