Postgraduate Semester for Screenwriters & Filmmakers
In addition to the two-year MFA in Film program, VCFA offers a 12-credit semester of postgraduate study for screenwriters and filmmakers.
Screenwriters – Offering writers the opportunity to polish their script, explore writing for visual media, or transform written work into a screenplay, this program offers full immersion into the evolving genres of feature, short, documentary, and episodic work.
Filmmakers – For filmmakers who want to explore new forms, gain creative insights, and refine their storytelling voices, this option offers an opportunity to take their current practice in new directions.
Admissions
