The objective is clear: to allow everyone to become familiar with the tools used in the industry from the first year, in order to be fully operational at the end of school. This technological immersion is reinforced by regular training in reference software (DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, Pro Tools, After Effects...). At AMCA, we believe that technical mastery is inseparable from creative freedom. It is by giving yourself the right tools that you will be able to create images that look like you.

The AMCA forges strong links with major cinema and audiovisual professionals and institutions, to open the doors of the real world to its students. These partnerships take multiple forms: masterclasses with recognized directors and technicians, acting workshops with established actors, writing residencies in collaboration with festivals, co-production projects with partner studios, visits to film sets... Thanks to these privileged connections, our students can enrich their learning in direct contact with those who make today's cinema.

These exchanges also offer numerous opportunities for internships, film assistants or participation in festivals. The school is thus thought of as a real springboard towards professional integration. These collaborations also feed into our educational program, which is continuously updated in line with changes in the industry. We believe that meeting the big names in the sector stimulates ambition, cultivates high standards and offers future filmmakers a wider perspective on the realities of the profession.

Entering AMCA means embarking on a structuring journey, which does not end with the diploma. Our mission is to support each student beyond training, until their integration into the world of work. From the last year, we offer personalized support for professional integration: writing artistic files, preparing for calls for projects, helping to create a business or an intermittent status, networking with recruiters or producers, etc.

Numerous mechanisms are in place to facilitate this transition: pitch events, job advertising platforms, individual coaching, interview preparation modules, mentoring by former students. This follow-up is possible thanks to a strong link with our network of alumni, who are regularly asked to intervene or recruit. The world of cinema is demanding, sometimes unstable: we want each graduate to come out equipped, confident, ready to adapt. The AMCA is not only a school: it is an ecosystem that continues to support you, even once you are in active life. Because making a movie, setting up a production company or joining a film crew requires preparation. And that's what we're here for.
