Participate Film Academy is the only place to go, if you want to learn how to make a full-length feature film – then walk the red carpet at its premiere.

One course, two pathways

The Participate Filmmaking course provides intensive training for all ages.

Participate offers a choice of to complete the course: via the Feature Diploma program.

All students study together and work on the same feature film project. If you choose the diploma pathway, you are also assessed for key competencies to gain accreditation.

The Feature Diploma program is new!

In 2009, Participate students have the opportunity to receive accreditation for the first time. This really is exciting news.

The diploma not only increases the value of the film-set experience and feature credit you gain during the course, it is also recognised as prior learning in Australia and overseas if you decide to pursue further study.

Are you over 55 and keen to make a movie?

Participate has new courses and workshops in development, and will be launching a feature film course specifically for people aged 55-plus shortly. Please contact us to register your interest.
