When I was considering film school LFS was on my list. I can't recall why the other was not. LFS looks like a nice program since it keeps you busy. I liked a lot of what they had to offer. The students look like they are constantly busy making movies.

That being said, I'd have never heard of the program here in the USA if I hadn't specifically gone looking for film schools, and in London.

You can't go wrong with either school, but to be honest, I see NFTS being the more useful as a school than LFS. I wish you luck on your decision, because either way, you'll have fun. Big Grin

Hi All,

Is there anybody who have applied for LFS or NFTS this year or any current student from these schools?

I had few questions regarding these schools:

1) I could not find much reviews about LFS.Is the MA program any good?
2) I am planning to apply for NFTS for cinematogrpahy but I don't have experience handling camera. I have written,directed and edited all of my shorts. Would that be helpful?

It would be really helpful if someone can answer.

Thanks in advance.

hey,Regs,i have get the offer of LFS alrealdy, i believe you can find enough imfomation from the website of LFS, and trust me, it's really good, maybe it's the best film
school in UK.
And, the second question, in my knowlege, NTFS needs pofessional skill before you applied, so, i think you need to express you passion.
good luck

well, I used to have the same problem with the NFTS or LFS things. I tried to connect and get some advice from the professors in UK teaching visual art now.

They usually say things like that: The LFS has a good reputation. However, it is not generally considered the best film school in the UK. That is the National Film and Television School, at Beaconsfield, a few miles outside London.

That's the exact words I get from some professors, hoping it would do some help to your guys.

well, you know, it is not a final answer, just some individual's opinion, hoping that there are more guys actually attending the courses now or having graduated from the two schools providing more advice.
