Big dreams?
We’ve got you.
Whoever you are, whatever your situation, every single one of us has a dream. Maybe it’s being known across the world, exploring new opportunities, moving overseas or simply making enough money to live a good life.
Too many of these dreams are left unexplored. Countless people grow old without having ever taken that step towards achieving their dreams.
At LSA, we tell those dreams through stories. We believe that everyone, regardless of where they come from, has a story. The type of story that can create the change the world needs.
When you join our sixth form, we’ll give you all the tools you need to tell those stories. Want to build a crew to make your first short film? We’ve got you. Want to branch out and find work experience within the industry? Again, we’ve got you. If you trust us to guide you, then we’ll trust you to tell your story.
If you want to turn your dreams into reality, then read on. This is your opportunity to join the next generation of storytellers.
Diversifying the screen industries
LSA is a free sixth form academy for students who want to learn all the skills required for a career in the Film & TV industries.
The mission of LSA is to diversify the screen industries. We are addressing the skills shortages within the industry and our vision is to create stories that change the world.
The UK film and television industries have not always reflected the diversity of the UK. There are also a range of skills shortages across the screen industries. LSA was founded to make positive changes within the industry, training young people from every background, in the skills needed to access the screen industries.
Creating stories that change the world
We are building the next generation of storytellers - our students are a diverse group of young, aspiring and inspiring creatives. It is our job to equip every young person here with the knowledge, skills and behaviours they need to go out and create the stories the world gets to see.
Only when we diversify the screen industry workforce can we truly tell world-changing stories.
