The Arizona Professional Film & Television Workshop Series is endorsed and sponsored by working industry groups and individuals who believe that the secure future of motion picture production in Arizona requires a highly trained and safety aware local work force.

Our dedicated instructors are Arizona-based, working industry professionals who have earned their living in the feature film, broadcast television and commercial markets for a minimum of 15 years, and are responsible for the hiring, recommendation and supervision of professional production crews.

OUR MISSION

1. We aim to provide the highest level of safety and skills training to the Arizona film and television production industry.
2. It is our belief that working professionals and their professional associations, groups and companies must commit their resources, experience and time to train and cross-train the Arizona production work force, providing a bridge between Universities, Colleges, Film Schools and industry.
3. We are committed to assisting in the professional placement and continuing employment of our workshop attendees and assisting them on a continual path of secure, professional growth.
4. It is our intent to instill in our attendees and staff the values of personal and professional commitment to our crafts, loyalty to each other, and a commitment of personal responsibility for the growth and welfare of our production community.
