London Film School, Film school in Westminster, England
The London Film School occupies a former brewery building in Covent Garden with multiple studios and technical spaces throughout. The facility includes editing suites, sound stages, screening rooms, and equipment for hands-on film production training.
The school was founded in 1956 as the London School of Film Technique and began in Brixton. It moved through different locations over the decades before arriving at its current Westminster home.
Students from around the world work side by side, creating a shared environment where different approaches to filmmaking come together naturally. This mix of perspectives shapes how the school operates and how people work within it.
Access to the studios and equipment is primarily available to enrolled students rather than casual visitors. For anyone interested in touring the facility or attending public events, it helps to check ahead about open days or specific occasions when the school welcomes guests.
The building is a Grade II listed structure that blends Victorian brewery architecture with contemporary film production needs in a central London location. This contrast between the historic shell and what happens inside creates an interesting setting for learning filmmaking.
