1. A constant shift between traditional class teaching, practical exercises and film production.
This offers you theoretical knowledge of film production as well as the chance to actually practice everything you learn in class. In terms of teaching, each course period consist of app. 25 teaching hours per week – and in terms of film production, our students produce more than 100 short films together during the programme.
2. The fact that students cannot pick a specific field of study, but are forced to dive into at least 3 different fields of filmmaking.
On one side, this allows our students to explore their true talent (maybe your talent is actually editing, and not directing?) – and on the other side, knowing more about other fields of filmmaking will make you better at your preferred field.

Who wouldn’t like to learn to see film in a new light? The importance of lighting on a film is often overlooked by inexperienced filmmakers. And so, lighting for film at EFC is basically for all aspiring filmmakers, or anyone interested in filmmaking.
You will get a basic understanding of the different sources of light and how to see, understand, and control that light. You will learn the basics of color-temperature, lighting ratios and the use of gels and diffusions.
The course will give you a full understanding of lighting and how it plays an essential role in telling a story visually. You will learn: lighting for daylight exposure, lighting for ‘tungsten exposure’, how to archive detail and contrast, color correction and ND filters, separation of light for greater depth, communication across fields on a film, and you will receive a crash course in electrical power, power-circuits and safety.
