Do you want to get
involved in the glamorous, respectable and creative life of a filmmaker?
Dear Filmmakers
Lights Film School would
like to introduce you to our online film school. Regardless of where you live in
the world you can enroll in our online film course and learn how to
create stunningly beautiful films that sell. Anyone with the willingness to
learn how to make films can enroll in our film school. After you enroll you'll
quickly start learning about both the art and science of filmmaking.
We'll teach you about all of the aspects of filmmaking from idea
conceptualization and screenwriting to how to direct, edit and market your films
to film
festivals and through other film marketing channels.
Whether you're looking to
start your own independent film production company or you're looking
for a career change into the exciting and rewarding film industry,
our film course will point you in the right direction.
All you need to enroll in
our film school is your own video or film camera and a computer. The details
about brands, types and other hardware or software specifications are not
important. Any video camera will do. We specialize in the process of teaching
film students how to create films and you can use whatever camera (no
matter how basic or advanced) to enroll in our film school.
Our
Film School is offered through distant education using the latest teaching
technologies.
When you enroll in our film
school you'll receive access to all of our online learning materials. This
includes hundreds of pages of filmmaking information, hours of instructional
video and many more hours of raw video footage that you'll need to edit for your
course assignments. All information is delivered through our online student HUB.
There is no waiting for anything in the mail. All learning takes place online.
A Practical & hands on learning environment for
our film students
Due to
recent advances in technology you no longer need to be confined to a classroom
to learn about film. Video sharing sites, affordable video cameras and social
networking sites for film industry professionals can all work together to
provide you with the basic learning platform you need to get started as a
filmmaker.
During the
duration of our course you'll be asked to complete many hands on learning
assignments. The completion of these assignments form the backbone of
our film course. You'll be asked to complete assignments ranging in scope from
writing a screenplay, shooting an opening sequence
for a film, creating a 'free budget' film, editing 60
minutes of video footage down to less than 3 minutes to create a music video
with a rapid editing technique (with raw footage that we provide of
course) and
much more. All of your assignments will be reviewed and graded by one of our
film school staff members giving you the opportunity to have a
personalized, one on one, interactive learning experience.
Our course
material includes hours of digital footage which will be used in many of your
assignments. We provide much of the raw footage that you will then need to learn
how to manipulate and edit.
Student Testimonial
"Thank you, thank you,
thank you... After completing your class I put together my first video which
as of TODAY I have sold for $10,000. It's not a huge sum of money, but the film
only cost me $300 to make and took me about 4 days to organize and shoot... 1
month after graduating your course I am already a full time filmmaker! I'm
writing you this letter from my breakfast table and I'm shaking as I write it.
I'm just so overcome with joy and enthusiasm. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

A peek at the topics covered in our film school
While our course is not time based (you can go as quickly or as slowly through
the assignments and learning material as you wish), We provide a 4 module
breakdown. Many students try to get through each module in a week (making it a 4
week course), while students with busier schedules get through 1 module per
month (making it a 4 month course).

Film School Enrollment Costs
While many people assume
that our film school enrollment costs must be staggering due to the sheer volume
of course
material, personalized one on one student attention, access
to our raw stock footage, music library and
film school lecture notes it's simply
not the case. While many film schools charge between $3000 and $10,000 for their
courses, our course is now being offered for
50% off our regular enrollment fee
of $599 and is now being offered for only $299 (That's a
full $200
discount).
However, if you have
financial need and would like to apply for a $50 or $100 grant you can do so on
our grant application page.
