Workforce Development

The Robinson FIlm Center teaches a variety of programs during the year that are geared towards developing Northwest Louisiana's film and television/media  workforce. From general industry knowledge to classes developed to get adult learners on set and working, each class is taught by working industry professionals with deep experience  on set, in Post, and in the production office. In addition to our planned slate, the RFC education team is also able to customize classes for industry or student needs - if you're bringing a show to the region or just interested in a certain facet of the industry, reach out to us at rhansil@robinsonfilmcenter.org

More classes coming soon!
