Del-York International has entered into an agreement with the world’s most prestigious film-making Academy, the New York Film Academy (NYFA) to bring the academy’s world-class training courses, facilities and tutors to Abuja, Nigeria.

Nigeria will be the first country on the African continent to host the NYFA team to an intensive hands-on training workshop on a diverse range of disciplines, including film making, public diplomacy, broadcast journalism, documentary-making, directing, screen writing, editing, 3D animation and master classes exclusively designed for professionals, marketing communications executives, lawyers, advertising agencies and government institutions.

According to Linus Idahosa, MD/CEO Del-York International, the course is designed for a new generation of filmmakers, screen writers, actors, producers, copy writers, creative directors and animators who share a passion for motion pictures. The training model allows all participants to achieve high level world class skills in less time than any other University, Institute or School in the world. Students will be given functional training that will lead directly to employment.

Nollywood actress Stephanie Okereke, who recently scored a box office hit with her debut directorial effort, Through The Glass, is an alumnus of the New York Film Academy.
