OUR HISTORY

The Los Angeles Film School expanded its offerings in 2004 with the addition of the Los Angeles Recording School recording engineering certificate program. Today, the school offers associate and bachelor’s degrees in multiple disciplines across the entertainment and media industry, including animation, game, entertainment business, film, music production and recording arts.
