MORE ABOUT US

Eagles Academy trains students mainly from township and peri-urban areas of Gauteng. These are mostly people who may not be able to afford traditional film schools.

Eagles Academy trains students in all aspects of film-making: screenplay writing, acting, cinematography, continuity, lighting, photography, directing, and editing. As part of the curriculum our students produce their own short films and documentaries. In addition to traditional film-making modules, the Eagles Academy curriculum offers entrepreneurship, business proposal writing, and dance. Students who excel get the opportunity to be placed with our partners in the film & entertainment industry,  with some even being placed in the business arena.

The main aim of Eagles Academy is to grow an astute market for films; to create digitally equipped, producer-literate African thespians who will become the next generation of global film-makers. We marry training with practical experience - a truly rare feat.
