FILMMAKERS GO TO SCHOOL

CFI Education’s Filmmakers Go to School (FGTS) program connects elementary, middle, and high school students with filmmaker guests from around the world who are taking part in the 41^st Mill Valley Film Festival by arranging for onsite visits to classrooms around the Bay Area.

Students get the unique opportunity to meet Festival filmmakers and engage in in-depth discussions about their work within the small-group classroom setting. Filmmakers get the chance to share their work with young audiences and to talk with them more informally about the art, craft, and business of filmmaking.

If you are interested in having your school or class take part in the FGTS program, please CLICK HERE, and our Education department will follow up with you to match you with the appropriate class and to coordinate scheduling. Filmmakers are matched with classes on a first-come, first-served basis.
