Newcastle Film School Newcastle Film School taking your love of film from passion to profession.
Ten years ago, making a feature film felt impossible for most people.
Now a bunch of Newcastle filmmakers can shoot a movie for peanuts and end up with a cinema release. That’s exactly what we did.
The tech has changed. The barriers are lower. The old gatekeepers matter less.
If you’ve ever thought about getting into filmmaking, now is a ridiculously good time to start.
We’re running a free Newcastle Film School Open Day on May 30 at 11am at Newcastle Comedy Club.
