🍿 We are proud to present the next screening of grad films with our neighbours at The Garden Cinema.

📆 Join us on Saturday 27 June at 2:00pm for a special selection of LFS films followed by a Q&A.

💌 Lessons in Love features short films from Serbia, Turkey, Azerbaijan and Argentina that explore love in its many forms - from young passion to filial duty and into old age. All these films are festival favourites and award winners from the last twelve years of the school’s archive.

We were delighted to welcome T Level Media students from Acland Burghley School to the London Film School recently as part of our Outreach programme. 🎬✨

The students enjoyed a tour of the School, took part in a hands-on camera composition and lighting workshop led by current MA Filmmaking student Melissa Myburgh, and even had the opportunity to see a live student production in action at our Shelton Street studios. 🎥

Creating opportunities for local young people to explore film education and discover the many pathways into the screen industries is an important part of what we do. 🌟 We look forward to welcoming more aspiring creatives through our doors in the future.

🙌 We’re proud to announce that London Film School is an official partner of the Academy Nicholl Fellowship in Screenwriting for a second year – one of the world’s most prestigious and career-defining opportunities for emerging screenwriters.

This exclusive partnership recognises the exceptional talent fostered at LFS and offers a rare chance for our community to be considered by a fellowship that has launched the careers of some of today’s top writers.

Eligible screenwriting students and graduates (within the past 5 years) are invited to submit their scripts.

📽️ London Film School’s 70th anniversary celebrations continue with the sixth strand in our archive film series.

We uncover the rich history of our student film archive with a new programme of films for June. This selection of archive films reflects the bold creativity, experimentation and distinctive voices that have shaped the school across seven decades.

STRAND SIX - DOCKLANDIA
The history of London’s Docklands is the history of London itself. Festooning the heart of the Thames with pulleys, cranes, and chains, the Docklands invigorated the city’s financial and industrial lifelines for nearly three hundred years. It is also a story of drastic social change - of the countless working-class lives caught in the economic and political repercussions of a rapidly modernising city.

From essayistic musings on the places we call home to the gallows humour of communities under threat from their own government, Docklandia is an archive of the Docklands’ final days: the domineering facades of vacant warehouses, and the defiant voices of those whose livelihoods would be irrevocably changed by a relentless campaign of urban renewal.

During the workshop students delve into the heart of the screenplay and the subtext that shapes compelling performances. By exploring the complexities of human emotion and interaction, students learn how to direct actors in ways that translate authentically on screen and captivate audiences.
