The Fall Term At Toronto Film School

As we approach the fall term at Toronto Film School with great anticipation, we also reflect back on what has been a meaningful and engaging educational experience for students over the past several months. Although the current reality for on-campus students in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic was rather unexpected, the result continues to be an engaging learning experience that allows our students to continue to be creative and pursue their career aspirations.

 

 

 

For the Fall term starting October 5, 2020, Toronto Film School will continue to offer a mix of remote synchronous delivery and limited studio courses for the following programs.

 

  • Acting for Film, Television and the Theatre
  • Film Production
  • Fashion Design

 

The following programs will continue to be offered through remote synchronous delivery.

 

  • Video Game Design & Development
  • Video Game Design & Animation
  • Writing for Film & Television
  • Graphic Design & Interactive Media
  • Marketing for Fashion & Entertainment

 

Further details will be communicated to students by their program advisors. No student will be required to be at the campus, however, we assure you that we are taking measures to make our spaces as safe as possible.
