PubliKart highlights the opening of the AMCA in Paris: a major recognition for the new school of cinema and audiovisual
The opening of the Académie des Métiers du Cinéma et de l'Audiovisual (AMCA) in Paris is being highlighted in the cultural press, in particular through an article published on the site PubliKart, a cultural media recognized for its expertise in the fields of cinema, the arts and creative initiatives. This publication marks an important step for the school, confirming the growing interest it is arousing in the French audiovisual landscape.
Valuing media coverage
In its dedicated article, PubliKart goes back in detail to the creation of the AMCA, its ambitions and its unique positioning within audiovisual formations in Paris. The opening of the school in the 19th arrondissement — rue de Cambrai, near the Corentin Cariou metro station — is presented as a new impetus for training in film professions, in the heart of a district in full creative dynamism.
By focusing on our strategic location and infrastructure, PublikArt highlights the uniqueness of the AMCA educational project, designed to be as close as possible to the reality of studios and production teams.
A professional pedagogy recognized by PublikArt
The site insists in particular on the specificity of the AMCA: a school built around a teaching staff composed exclusively of working professionals. This choice, which is widely highlighted in the article, is one of the pillars of the Academy's educational project.
According to PubliKart, this direct proximity to industry allows students to acquire from the beginning of their studies a concrete understanding of the professions, working methods, and requirements of the sector.
A training structured in two cycles, praised for its coherence
PublikArt also discusses the organization of the course:
- A core curriculum of one and a half years,
- followed by specializations for a year and a half.
- This format is presented by the media as a balanced and progressive approach, giving students the time they need to acquire a solid foundation before moving on to a specific career path.
The article also highlights close collaboration with partners such as Yes We Do Production, installed within the school itself. This proximity that PubliKart describes as “a major asset to allow students to immerse themselves in real projects and to learn directly about the functioning of a production company.”
PubliKart's perspective on the “American Academy” vision
The article devotes considerable space to the vision carried out by Benattou Benichou, founder and director of AMCA, and former deputy director of the CLCF. PubliKart insists on its desire to create a “small American-style academy”, focused on individualized follow-up, personal projects and the commitment of teachers in the field.
Since each director intervenes taking care of a small group of students on his own sets, PublikArt sees it as a rare, demanding and particularly formative educational model.
Encouraging recognition for the first promotion
The publication of this article on PubliKart comes while the selection of the first promotion — limited to 60 students — is in progress. The media also underlines the desire of the AMCA to focus on personalized support rather than on massification, in order to guarantee a rise in truly professional skills.
The start of the school year scheduled for mid-January 2026 is announced as the starting point of an adventure that promises to be a lasting part of the Parisian audiovisual landscape.
Conclusion
The publication of this article on PubliKart constitutes a strong signal: it validates the relevance of the AMCA project and attests to the immediate interest that the new school is arousing in specialized media. This spotlight contributes to firmly establishing AMCA as an ambitious, demanding course that is resolutely focused on the professional realities of cinema and audiovisual.
If you want to join a committed, innovative school supported by working professionals, AMCA Paris now opens its doors to you.
