Presentation of the training

Cinemagis offers a complete two-year preparation program for the film industry and a year of specialization. The training is professionalizing, validated by a level 5 RNCP title (equivalent to Bac +2, recognized by the State).

The objective is professional integration and the entire supervisory team is mobilized throughout the program to individually accompany the students towards the creation and development of a network that is essential for integrating film and TV fiction teams.

The two years of preparation cover the entire chain of film creation and allow students to acquire the basic skills, operating « codes » and soft-skills of the film and TV fiction sector.

The year of specialization allows students to deepen the skills they have already acquired and to train for their chosen profession:

– Assistant film director
– Film camera assistant
– Audiovisual editor

Combining theoretical and practical courses (weekly modules), the themes follow each other at the pace of the productions expected during the course:

– in the first year, a collective stop-motion short film and an individual short film. The technical teams are formed by all the members of the group, about fifteen students in total.

– in the second year, a collective fictional clip or commercial and a documentary by teams of two or three.

– in the year of specialization, a long fiction with the three classes. A unique approach in France.
