American Film Institute
You may have heard of the American Film Institute from its lists of top movies, like the 100 Greatest Movies, 100 Funniest Movies and 100 Most Heart-Pounding Movies. But the AFI is much more than that. Its mission is to train emerging artists, preserve film and images, and recognize cinematic greatness.
The institute offers numerous workshops throughout the year, and the conservatory offers master's degrees in cinematography, directing, editing, producing, production design and screenwriting. AFI has also hosted a film festival and annually gives out the Lifetime Achievement Award, which has honored, among others, Barbra Streisand, John Ford and Orson Welles. Visit the official AFI site for information on all of these initiatives and more.
