The Met Film School is London's leading provider of practical filmmaking courses, based at Ealing Studios.

  

Course Overview

 

Part-Time Producing is an unique course developed for those of you who wish to forge a career as a film producer, or who wish to gain a deep understanding of the business of film. You may, for example have a feature film project in mind that you would like to develop. Or perhaps you have transferable business skills that you would like to apply in a filmmaking context.


On this comprehensive course, you will learn how films are created, financed and sold from industry professionals who have recently produced features. For our September intake this course consists of seminars and workshops on two evenings per week (7.00 pm to 10.00 pm), from our April course, onwards these seminars and workshops will take place every other Saturday. In addition, you will gain valuable practical experience of the role of a producer by developing your own feature film project. In one-to-one sessions with the instructor, you will budget, schedule, package a feature film and come up with marketing strategies for this project.
