About Us
Liverpool Film Academy has a proven track record for producing high quality broadcast film and working with the hardest to reach groups on the verge of social exclusion. Established in 2003, by internationally acclaimed Liverpool producer, Colin McKeown, to provide professional vocational training in the audiovisual industries throughout Merseyside, LFA consistently delivers and produces high quality educational films. By working collaboratively with schools and strategic partner organisations and agencies, LFA is able to develop, deliver and disseminate key government issues e.g. ‘Every Child Matters’ using the film genre as a creative educational tool on both a local and national level.

VISION
Our vision is to make Liverpool and the North West the first choice destination for film production by ensuring that Liverpool has a skilled pool of talent that can provide the industry for present and future generations of indigenous filmmakers.
PROJECTS
Work has begun on a new project with SMASH, the Sefton based young peoples drug agency. With a cohort of 8, the Academy has completed a scheme which gave young people an introduction to the necessary skills to create a film which will promote SMASH to prospective new service users.
Two film projects have now been successfully delivered in partnership with SMASH - video clips and scheme information coming soon-
Wasted tackles the issues of teenage drinking and the effects alcohol can have on the lives of young people.
Written entirely by young people under the guidance of industry script writer Tony Lyndsay and in partnership with the Young Peoples Services In West Lancashire.
This film really hits home and is definitely not for the faint hearted.
More information to come soon.
STAR will help you understand a little more about who you are, discover what you really want from your life and help you make more informed choices by creating a practical plan to realise your true potential.
This film introduces you to STAR and the concept that we all have a unique set of Skills, Treasures, Ambitions and Roles in life that make us the stars we are.
