FilmGear® is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of filmmakers through our strategic partnerships with esteemed film schools in Southern California. As we gear up for another year of collaboration, let's reflect on some of our noteworthy experiences with various educational institutions.
Our enduring partnership with UCLA stands as a testament to our commitment. Over the years, UCLA has been a valued collaborator, owning a diverse array of equipment from FilmGear®.
A snapshot from last year's demonstration captures students harnessing the power of our 4k Daylight Powerbeam.
As well as some words from our film school faculty collaborators:
Kevin Bui (American Film Institute) David Berry (UCLA)
Kevin Bui from AFI shared his thoughts on FilmGear®’s equipment, underscoring the importance of durability in educational environments: "Durability is one of the biggest things with FilmGear® lights. It's been knocked around and been through the war on set." Echoing this sentiment, UCLA instructor David Berry emphasized that FilmGear®'s units empower students to focus on lighting as a whole, not just the light source.
Our commitment extends beyond UCLA, as we have conducted engaging demonstrations at various universities like USC. As we eagerly anticipate collaborating with more schools this year, FilmGear® remains proud to provide the educational community with professional-grade lights that are still able to fit within a wide range of departmental budgets.
Looking ahead, we are excited about another year of fruitful collaboration. Stay updated on our endeavors with film schools across the industry by subscribing to our social media channels. FilmGear® is enthusiastic about continuing to contribute to the growth and development of aspiring filmmakers.
