Film Schools

Loyola Marymount University – School of Film and Television

At LMU’s School of Film and Television (SFTV), we believe all writers have stories to tell and all creatives have visions worth bringing to life. And we believe our most important job is to inspire and empower the next generation of talent.

Through our student-centered curriculum and programs, plus hands-on mentorship from faculty and industry leaders, we foster curiosity, courage, creativity, and confidence in our students as they learn to craft visual stories with entertainment appeal and cultural impact. We encourage them to bring out the best in each other and to work and lead with integrity so that they leave SFTV not only with the knowledge, skills, and connections they need to lead successful careers, but also with the prized ability to develop meaningful, lasting relationships on which their careers will be built.

The GGF’s Endowed Scholarship support provides SFTV with the funding to recruit the diverse, talented storytellers and creatives whose voices and visions will challenge and change the world.

The GGF also supports LMU’s dedication to empowering the next generation of diverse leaders in entertainment through its partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters LA andThe Hollywood Reporter for the Women in Entertainment Mentorship Program.
