Absolutely loved the 5 month Short Film School. You learnt everything you need to be able to create your very own film! I went on to produce my very own short film 😁.

I'm a newbie filmmaker and didn't know where to start so this film school was right up my alley. Great teachers, good advice and I finished the five months knowing I could make some great films and even have the confidence to do some freelance film work. Thanks so much for helping me out.. well worth the money spent!

Such a great film school. For somebody like me that had no idea where to even start or what specifically to get into this is a must go to course. The 5 months went fast but learnt so much! 5 stars from me... if your reading this review and contemplating if you should attend this course - YOU should!

I learnt so much on the five month film school and trust me I've been to so many courses. If you want to learn a lot in a short span of time, Australian Film Base is the place to go. The price justifies the knowledge and experience you will get once you complete this and as for me I was able to get a job in the film industry thanks to these guys.

I've taken many quick courses about filmmaking and this one is by far the best in Melbourne. Really in-depth, quality instructors that have knowledge and field experience that are down to earth and really made me feel at home (I had a lot of questions). I left the course more confident in myself to take on the film industry! Everything from lighting to camera angles.. I learnt so much!!

I've been keen to get into filmmaking but wasn't to sure what I really want to be. Editor? Director? or mabye grip? Well I learnt so much in 5 months and it really helped me map out my goals on the position I wanted to endeavour in in the film industry. Loved every single day here! Peace, Francis.
