VIRTUAL SPEAKER SERIES

Since March 2020, Ghetto Film School has transitioned the entirety of our coursework online, using Zoom, Adobe Connect and a wide variety of distance learning tools. We're proud to prioritize and deliver uninterrupted services and education for our Fellows Program, while still preserving the student drive and active participation at the heart of GFS culture. 

As a part of our virtual learning initiatives, we're hosting the GFS Virtual Speaker Series -  a series of guest classes using Zoom software, for our current NY & LA Fellows and alumni.  You can catch recaps and highlights from the Virtual Speaker Series here and on our  YouTube channel.
