Students filming on location


"I graduated from the NFTS in 2005, was nominated for an Academy Award in 2006 and joined Dreamworks in 2006. All my heroes went to the Film School. Without scholarship support, I would have never been able to come to the School and realise my dreams."

Funding tomorrow's filmmakers today

Some of the most well-known current filmmakers are former NFTS students, including Nick Park (creator of Wallace and Gromit); Roger Deakins (DoP Revolutionary Road, The Reader, No Country for Old Men); David Yates (Director, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince); Beeban Kidron (Director, Bridget Jones) and several others. Most of them would not have been able to come to the School without financial support.

To continue to attract and retain the most talented students, regardless of their financial means, we need to establish more scholarships. Fees and maintenance costs for a home student (UK and EU) are around £15,500 per annum. Coming to the School is therefore a major financial commitment which few students can afford. Consequently, scholarship support from individuals and corporate supporters is vital in guaranteeing that we can continue training the most talented students irrespective of their background.

We welcome small and large donations towards the NFTS Scholarship Fund. Alternatively, you may wish to become more closly involved with the life at the School and its students by establishing your own named scholarship.
