About Me

San Francisco, California, United States
San Francisco School of Digital Filmmaking (SFSDF) is one of the most innovative film schools in the country. Offering programs in both Digital Filmmaking and Film Acting, SFSDF bridges the gap between traditional education and professional moviemaking. Our intensive and hands-on programs are designed to prepare students for a successful career in the motion picture industry. The innovative curriculum is taught by award-winning filmmakers and is project-based, with students creating their own movies and working on professional feature-length motion pictures. SFSDF students learn the art and craft of filmmaking and work in a variety of genres – fiction, commercials and documentary. Each class is structured around small production teams in which students produce their own movies and crew on team member projects. In this way, students get personalized instruction, maximum experience with the equipment, and create material for their demo reels.

Feature Films


SFSDF is also the only film school in the country offering every student the valuable experience of crewing on a professional feature-length motion picture through its sister company, Fog City Pictures. In the past year, Fog City Pictures has produced two feature films with a talented array of award-winning actors and filmmakers. For more information on these and other upcoming productions visit our website http://sfdigifilm.com/feature_film.html.
