UTSA Film/Media draws courses and faculty from across COLFA in order to inspire the next generation of film and media storytelling, art, criticism, and scholarship. Students can pursue a major or minor, while they study film history and theory, develop their screenwriting craft, or work with cutting-edge equipment in our new Film Production Hub to shoot and edit their own projects.
Contact Film Studies Director Paul Ardoin for questions about the program or to be added to the program mailing list.
