Newcastle Film School is here to help you crush your film goals in 6 weeks.
Why choose NFS?
We are here to accelerate the ambitious storytellers.
We believe anyone can be a filmmaker and anyone can go big in their film career with the right guidance and tools. To put it simply, we help students go from novice to expert in a fraction of the time and cost. We have spent the last 10 years perfecting our course so you can jump right in and start making a living doing what you love in just a couple months.
Use your gear:
Not having the ‘best’ gear is no excuse to put your dreams on hold any longer.
Whether you are using a fancy boy cinema camera or a couple of hundred buck DSLR, top of the line editing with all the best add-ons, or naughty pirated edited programs from 8 years ago (don’t worry we have a strict no snitching policy)- it just doesn’t matter.
We will teach you how to get the absolute most out of what you have available to use so that you can start filming within your budget.
Let’s embrace the hunger to make films, not the excuses why you can’t!

Want to do the course but can't come to the in-person classes?
That sucks, because you’ll be getting all the juicy stuff in these in-person tutorials. But fret not – we are here to accommodate!
If you are keen to just do the course, that’s perfectly fine – you don’t have to come, but just shoot us an email to let us know you won’t be attending so we can give that spot to someone who can.
There are no projects:
We structured our 6 week course with no projects so that you can focus on the learning and not stressing out about deadlines.
But feel free to set yourself your own project to complete over the 6 weeks, we encourage our students to always be working on their craft in any way they can.
