InFocus was born at the heart of Vancouver’s Film Industry. Located in a heritage building in downtown Vancouver’s culturally vibrant Gastown neighborhood, InFocus Film School was established by accomplished filmmakers dedicated to passing their knowledge to new generations of artists.
InFocus proudly remains 100% independent. No parent companies. No vested partners. Our students and their success is our one and only priority.
InFocus Film School’s Film Production Program is dedicated to hands-on, practical training. Cameras are out from day one, with interactive lectures and weekly exercises that supplement and strengthen your creative and technical skills.
