About Seattle Film Institute

Seattle Film Institute has prepared students for successful careers in the film industry since 1994. Students develop the specific creative and technical expertise, as well as the critical “employability” skills necessary to launch their careers in today’s fast-paced film environment. At SFI, our unique hands-on and production-based approach means students get a rigorous, well-rounded education in film, where they immerse themselves in the filmmaking process starting from day one. Our faculty is comprised of experienced, working professional filmmakers, actors, writers, editors, composers, cinematographers, agents and other specialists.
