Activities Co-ordinator

“We have worked with the one day film school for several years now. Every workshop they deliver is exceptional. The children remain fully engaged throughout the day and the actors/facilitators delivering the session can answer any questions thrown their way. It remains a superb way to introduce our young children to the concepts of camera angles, framing and how to engage an audience, as well as letting them see some of the secrets of Hollywood that make the movies they know and love. It really opens their eye to some of the opportunities that are out there in the film industry. I highly recommend the sessions and I hope to continue to work with the Young Film Academy in the future”

Head of 6th Form

“If we have used the One Day Film School for 17 years, there must be a reason…in fact, there are several ones! They are brilliant at getting the best ‘inner cinematographer’ out of our boys, keeping them engaged throughout the day and making them produce some very decent films at the end. Our boys love working with One Day Film School and some of them even discover a real passion for the world of cinema. Technologies have changed in the last 17 years, and One Day Film School have always been up to date with the recent changes. Highly recommended” – 16th June 2023

Fiona Probert

Head of Year 8

“As one of the highlights of the Year 8 calendar, our annual workshop with One Day Film School always provides a fun, challenging day of learning and collaboration from which the pupils gain so much… The short films they learn to direct, edit and produce are impressively slick, and the Oscars-style ceremony at the end of the day is always a dramatic end to the experience. Highly recommended!” – 19th May 2023
