A $250,000 recent investment in new Hollywood-grade equipment means we can provide our students with over 50 new Sony cameras, Arri Alexa Mini and Alexa Mini LF cameras, Sony wireless and Sennheiser shotgun microphones, and much more.

A new state-of-the-art studio campus is coming soon to 120 Bloor Street East in Toronto.

Student Fest is a student-led initiative, providing collaboration opportunities and prizes. Past event partners include:

Once a year, Toronto Film School hosts a festival of student projects leading up to an awards ceremony. Films, video games and graphic designs are put on display for students, alumni, and guests to see.

Projects are judged in 20 categories by a panel made up of faculty and industry professionals.

The Level Up Showcase event is all about celebrating and recognizing student talent in video game creation. Here, in this provincial competition, students put their work on display and make new contacts in the process.

In 2023 and 2025, a panel of industry professionals awarded Infestari (`23) and Hazard Hardware (`25)—games made by our students—with the “Best Artistic Achievement” award. Approximately 2000+ gaming enthusiasts and industry professionals were in attendance, with over 100 games submitted for judging. I

Toronto Film School’s connections with major film studios allows us to provide our students with advance screenings of the latest Hollywood films.

Toronto Film School is the first private career college in Ontario whose acting graduates have the option of applying for their first ACTRA credit. ACTRA, the Alliance of Canadian Cinema, Television and Radio Artists, requires three credits for membership.

By graduating with the ability to secure their first credit, our students are just two credits away from full membership—permitting them to perform in union productions of commercials, TV shows, and films.

At this live, virtual event—held regularly—prospective students will have the opportunity to hear stories and advice from the students and graduates of our Video Game Design & Development and Video Game Design & Animation Diploma programs.

During this special evening, industry-related activities are always planned, such as a live build of a model for a video game, and a Q&A period.

Dual Enrolment = $10,000 in Tuition Savings!

Students have the option of earning their TFS creative diploma and seamlessly transitioning into the Bachelor of Creative Arts (BCA) Program at our degree pathway partner Yorkville University.

Through this dual enrolment pathway, students will gain leadership and management skills required for senior roles in today’s creative industries. Students who enrol in both programs at once and complete them back-to-back (typically in just 3-4 years*) will save $10,000 in tuition costs while graduating with two qualifications.

* Request a call with an admissions advisor for full details on eligibility requirements or visit TorontoFilmSchool.ca. The $10,000 bursary is applied to the last two terms of the BCA program.
