History
Based within a converted Methodist Church on Walham Grove, the London Film Academy was founded in 2001. The stated ethos was to produce practical film courses that focused on the art of celluloid filmmaking, with lecturers that were active within the film industry.
In January 2006 the LFA formed a partnership with Club Panico. Panico was created in the mid eighties and has patrons that include Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones and Sir Ben Kingsley. Together with the LFA, Panico now serves as a stepping stone to industry for graduate and post graduate students.
The LFA holds its annual graduation show at the BFI Southbank. The school's annual awards for 2013 were presented by Alice Lowe and Nic Roeg. Daisy Gili and Anna MacDonald co-founded the Academy and have served as joint principals of the LFA for ten years, and remain so as at 2013.
Accreditation
The London Film Academy was reviewed by the QAA (Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education) in November 2012. The result was a positive affirmation of LFA standards. The LFA's Writer-Diploma Course is Creative Skillset Approved.
Tutors
Amongst the academy's tutors are cinematographer Phil Meheux; directors Laurence Moody, Mamoun Hassan, and Stuart Urban; novelist and screen writer Jeremy Sheldon; and filmmakers Asif Kapadia and Richard Kwietniowski.
Partners
The academy's partners include Apple, Arri, Cannes Film Festival, Goldsmiths, University of London, Kodak, New Horizons Film Festival, Riverside Studios, Deluxe Entertainment Services Group Inc., and Anglia Ruskin University (Cambridge Campus)
Courses of study
