Mission & Strategy
Ever since its creation, the Film Studies Department at ECAL has been preparing students to become film-makers in the multi-faceted world of media. The cross-disciplinary degree programme covers all aspects of film-making: films and artistic videos, documentaries, fiction, general communication, TV programmes, trailers and advertising,
Throughout the years, ECAL’s Film Studies Department has reached out to a variety of both Swiss and overseas film professionals and regularly works with Swiss and European schools and institutions (The Swiss Film Archives, The Manufacture School of Drama, The Swiss School of Music, The University of Lausanne, the French School of Image and Sound). We also participate in numerous festivals
Every year we invite a number of guest speakers and professors (film-makers, technicians, screenwriters, film historians, producers etc.) to seminars and workshops where they share their expertise and talents with the students, and this in turn stimulates the students’ creativity.
