REGULAR PROGRAMS
CAMPUS / ONLINE
SFFS's regular program takes students from the fundamentals of CG, VFX, 3D animation, games, and commercial production all the way through to a professional-level portfolio — and a job.
Led by experienced instructors, the curriculum balances artistic creativity with technical precision, built around the same production environments and workflows used in the industry. From concept development to final compositing, students move through the full pipeline rather than learning tools in isolation.
Every student is taught at their own level. Progress is individual, and instruction follows.
REGULAR PROGRAMS
3D COMPOSITE
Compositing is the invisible craft — the art of making CG and live-action footage feel like they were always in the same world.
This program covers the full compositing pipeline in Nuke, from keying and rotoscoping to multi-pass CG integration and camera tracking. You'll learn to see what's off and fix it. It's the skill that keeps a shot from falling apart in the final cut.

CAREER PATH
Hollywood movies and TV commercials are not made by just using one program.
SF Film School education is not just centered around Maya but around visual effects and realistic compositing.
VISUAL EFFECTS
In filmmaking, visual effects (VFX) is the creation of any on-screen imagery that does not exist in real life. VFX allows filmmakers to create environments, objects, creatures, and even people that would otherwise be impractical or impossible to film in a live-action shot. VFX in film frequently involves the integration of live-action footage with computer-generated imagery (CGI).
ENVIRONMENT DESIGN
The process of creating a virtual or photorealistic set for film or drama production with digital or traditional painting.
As a curriculum that can respond to all industries in line with the changes of the times, many students choose this course with the goal of becoming a true senior artist.
3D COMPOSITE
The 3D compositing process is a process of synthesizing a virtual digital with a live image to create various elements as if they belonged naturally to the same space.
