Our Mission
To create the next generation of communication artists and teach them how to speak visually, as preparation for a career in the rapidly changing global film industry. We will educate them in practical and technical aspects of film production and train them to become entrepreneurs who embrace new media and the exponentially expanding commercial uses of the moving image.
Our Vision:
To make Nashville synonymous with film by populating the international film community with NFI visioneers and by helping to establish Nashville as a key contributor to the global film economy.
Some of our successful alumni
Doug Ritzenthaler - Rich King Casting Hollywood
Tom Woolridge - Assistant RED Camera operator - Feature Film

Quote: "If you are considering coming to study at The Nashville Film Institute with us I highly encourage you to amp up that consideration. It's an environment that cultivates creativity in a way I have never quite seen before. You'll be surrounded by individuals that are passionate about what they are doing - and more importantly, are genuinely passionate about what YOU are doing. You won't regret it."
