Its a great school and you don't need debt solutions to study there. If you want to learn how to fight for your acting career you will learn here. I had to play a piano tutorial teacher in one of the scenes which was not too difficult.

As a whiskey lover, I felt slightly ashamed of my minimal knowledge of the spirit and set out to learn a bit about what differentiates each type of whiskey. What I found was that there are endless ways to categorize the beverage, from ingredients and distilling processes to country and region.

Very student wants a good education for himself but at the school or college campus is just not a place he/she would find everything easy going for him. Students can have troubles adjusting and acclimatizing themselves to a new environment.

If your child is facing issuing that are hampering his/her development then sometimes a teen wilderness program might just be the thing that can rescue his fagging interest and get him back to being a normal child that every parent wants to have.

They have linked this site to their Twitter account because it's the only site that has positive reviews of the school. Pathetic.

I think that we should indicate WHICH school we attended. I noticed that the NYFA in NYC generally receives more favorable reviews than the fecal stain that is the L.A. school on other sites. Plus, the people who attend it for long periods of time (as opposed to 6-8 weeks) notice that it's horrible, not the short-termers.

Alright, folks, here is the deal: the school in L.A. is in such pathetic condition at this point that they are shuttling students to cheap apartment buildings for class. Apparently the companies that share that building want the school to move to a different location. Nice.

If you are considering attending this place, the primary thing that you need to know is the drop out rate is horrible. Students drop out in droves because they learn eventually that the school is basically a scam. The teachers are mostly incompetent and pathetic. The administrators couldn't care less.
If you're one of the delusional people who remains there, congratulations. You're just pissing away thousands of dollars.
I've heard that they have recently tried to overhaul the management there.

Hey, as they say in Seinfeld, "good luck with all of that."

please i want to go at this school call mee at this number 0734475905 or give me i-mail at this mail misuadrian@yahoo.com.please i am very good and love to make films and to be part of this.please i pay.please

After my experience of NYFA, I saw movies like I've never had before. I had a better perspective of movies. Like the the first time I have seen a movie. It was fantastic. Since NYFA, I have continued my filming in my Mad Circle Productions that I have made a year before NYFA. I have a couple film ideas in mind. Advice I have to aspiring filmmakers is to write down any basic ideas that you have. It could be simple, too. Usually, people think their ideas have to be complex. It doesn't. If you write it down, read two or three days later you could build off of it. So, definitly write it down. My experience at NYFA was amazing. I went to the one week digital filmaking course at Orlando, Florida at Disney. I went June 28- July 4, 2009. It was wonderful. Everyone was so nice. I could talk about my favorite movies without feeling like a geek or whatever. So if there is anyone on the fence about going to NYFA, go! You will be glad you did. - Chad

P.S: all you people slamming New York Film Academy is either jealous of people who go there, or have no idea what they are talking about! Just sayin'

Hi! My name is Daniel Kahn, and I was a graduate of NYFA's 6-week Student film&digital and Advanced HD programs in 2008 and 9, at Universal Studios. I loved the program so much! I learned so much from making my films there, and I have great material for my portfolio. My final film from 2008, "Detect This!" was accepted into the Kid's First! Film Festival, and my film from the HD class, "Able" is being submitted to festivals now. I used Able as my portfolio for college, and I've gotten into the University of Tampa (with a $7,000 scholarship), and Drexel University, and I'm waiting for USC, NYU, Syracuse, Emerson, UMiami, and UNorth Carolina at Wilmington.
I'm currently writing an unnamed feature.

For more information about me or my films, including a documentary I'm working on, you can check out my website at www.dankahnfilms.com, or my blog at www.dankahnfilms.blogspot.com.

NYFA changed my life!

Do you know anything about the Directing courses that hey hold? There is apparently one for women, its a crash course and i'm just wondering if anyone knows how useful it actually is. an 8 week intensive course can probably cover a lot more than these super short directing classes don't you think? Anyways, it is pricey, you can spend like 1 grand in just one week, so I'm hoping that I can get a lot out of it.

NYFA is a great school, everyone is just pissed cause its so expensive, but that's what a private education is worth. No one forced you to go to an expensive for profit school. You could have gone to a public education school for a fraction of the price. THat being said, NYFA was a great life choice for me. sure the school has some flaws, but so do all schools. There are some politics, etc, but if you are able to focus on your goals and why you came to the school, you can ignore all that stuff and learn what they are trying to teach their students; the art of storytelling, and how to manipulate a 16mm film. So many of us have experience working with digital but nothing compares to being able to learn from an actual physical film.

I was curious, I am researching schools for acting and its quite a daunting task. I was curious if there are ANY schools I can utilize the GI bill from the military. Any and all information would be helpful as I love the performing arts and would love nothing more then to break into the industry. Thank you in advance!!!

I went to NYFA for two years. I did the film making and the producing course. It was very valuable the education I got. I will move forward with a better understanding of how to make and produce films. I also think its good to take both courses. Easier to come out of the Producing course and get jobs then it is with the film making. I always say to wanna be directors learn a crew position because you wont be directing straight out of school. So try to pick one vrew position and be good at it. However I will agree big time with what Evan said. There is NO heat in the winter in the classrooms at least in the Union Square building. It is ridiculous. I spent like 40k to go to that fricken school and its below zero out and everyone has to wear a jacket and gloves including the teachers and try to write notes. Its ridiculous!!! Miserable. I walked out a few times cause I was like this is inhumane. They are very good at advertising especially in foreign countries. They put a lot into their advertising. I agree and think they should put some of that money back into the building. The one in SoHo seems nice as well as LA but the Union Square one is for shit!!! The electricity, the heat and the internet suck!! And yes the scheduling is ridiculous. As a woman that was also running a business it was awful as they have no respect for peoples lives and how they schedule shit. For someone taking a Producing Program where you are taught about scheduling it behooved me at how they scheduled. They need to find a better way to do what they do in that regard. Big Time. It was very hard running a buisness and having a life with how they scheduled stuff. Many times you didnt get your schedule for the semester until a few days after it started. So scheduling anything as far as seeing family, holidays setting up business meetings etc was extremely difficult. It may not matter to a 22 yr old but as a 36 yr old with a lot of responsibilities it was very frustrating. They do have some great teachers though and I agree some not as well. The Producing Course I believe is supposed to be one of the best in the world. Overall I liked 90% of my teachers.Felt they were good at what they did. However it was annoying that they only focus on indie film. If you want to do TV this is not the school to go to. They dont teach you barely anything about TV and none of the teachers have any TV experience. They also dont teach you anything about studio films and studio work either. Which is frustrating for a Producer that may want to take their career in that direction.I hope the LA school does but the NY one doesnt at all. Also yes it is a ton of lazy rich kids that go there that are completely clueless and lazy as hell. Most of my projects I did alone with getting outside pros to help. As a lot of students are useless and lazy. Which is weird as my friend in LA that goes to LACC said the exact opposite of the students there, that they were all really driven and motivated. I think its the rich kid thing. A lot of these kids have never had to work in their life and the program is intense and you have to work your ass off. Its not all the students that are this way but Id say 40% of them are. Which if your not smart enough to get peeps outside of school to help you and you are stuck having to use just the students they can really mess up your projects. Thats why I always crewed up all my stuff with free non students. Overall though through all the pain of dealing with the school it was as I said very valuable to me. I had been in the adult biz producing and directing for 13 years. However going to this school I did still learn a lot. It really is a program of you get what you put into it. I even got a 5k grant for one of my semesters. They also were great with me having to go through a lot as my Mom passed away while going to school there and they were compassionate and dealt with me in an admirable way. So after 2 years of course I have a lot to bitch about but I also have a lot of good things to say about the education I received. It was worth I felt my time and money. I do wish they would let producers have more access to equipment. As producers you are very limited in equipment which sucks. However there course and what they teach is good. My friend however also is going to LACC for film. He has GREAT teachers and has learned alot at 1/4th of what I paid. So if you can afford it, it is way worth it. However if you cant you can get the same education for cheaper. Also God I spent a shitload on my projects. They say the budget for everything is zero which is bullshit. Over my 2 years, I must have spent at least another 20k on my projects alone. However I have a fabulous and great reel which is what I wanted from the school which is what I got. You should be very serious about each project and make each project good enough to be able to get a job from it after school cause after school its hard getting equipment and Ins etc. Most students didnt seem to take the projects as serious as they should have and now have no reel or really crap looking amateur stuff for a reel when they leave which is such a waste. So Im not unhappy about the $ spent on projects at all, just letting everyone out there know to be prepared to spend money on your projects otherwise you may end up with a shit reel as most of my peers did as they were not willing to spend much. But they still did spend, you have too. For most thesis projects you can expect to spend at least 5 to 10k. I just graduated a week ago I am happy to be done. I learned a shit load in those two years. Good Luck with everyone on there film ventures:) Hopefully my view helped somehow.... If you want more info feel free to send me a message.
