Heard On The Lot:

The prospect of working long, tiring hours, but being able to see at the end the creation I've constructed with my crew is something well worth the work for me. Whether it's documentary or fiction, you feel as though you're giving birth to something.
You feel proud for how far your film has come, you've prepared it; done the best you can for it, and now it's time to send it off into the world to be judged and criticized.

— Jess Martinez

Part Time Evening Classes & Weekend Workshops

Whether you're interested in film production, digital video, documentary, screenwriting, film history, editing, animation & effects, directing, producing or audio for film you'll find a home at the Seattle Film Institute.
Courses are carefully designed so that you can take classes in a specific subject, complete a certificate program in filmmaking, or choose a shorter certificate in a specific area of interest such as film production, documentary, or screenwriting. Class times are arranged on weekday evenings, and weekend days, so students can often take multiple classes in different areas of interest at the same time.

Our new Filmmaking Certificate Program with 540 contact hours of classes gives students the opportunity to earn a certificate at their own pace and allows all those who complete the program access to the Seattle Film Institute internship program. The Master Certificate is similar to the certificate earned by those enrolled in the full-time program.
