Film Festival
Once a year, Toronto Film School hosts the Festival of Films, an awards event where student films are screened in a downtown movie theatre (i.e.: TIFF LightBox). 18 different categories are judged by a panel of industry professionals and faculty.
Modern Studios and Industry-Grade Equipment
Our 17,000 square-foot studio at 460 Yonge Street is home to five studios, vocal booth, equipment room, lounge and classrooms. Additional studios are located just down the street at our 10 Dundas Street campus. Our Film Production students are able to shoot their films on the latest filmmaking equipment from:
Studio Screenings
Often Toronto Film School hosts advance studio screenings of an upcoming film, or has exclusive access to big studios pre-screenings.
ACTRA partnership
Acting for Film, TV and the Theatre Diploma Program are eligible for their first membership credit with the Alliance of Canadian Cinema, Television and Radio Artists (ACTRA). This credit, made possible through a partnership between Toronto Film School and ACTRA, means graduates will only have to earn two more credits in ACTRA’s Apprentice Program to become a full ACTRA member (three credits in total are required). Toronto Film School is the first private career college in Ontario to qualify.
Video Game Industry Nights
Regularly, the faculty of our video game programs host an Industry Night, designed to hear from alumni who are now enjoying dream careers doing what they love. Industry Nights are also an opportunity to make new contacts, ask questions, and partake in special events like a live build of a model for a video game.
