AFTT Screening Protocols
Screenings are a mandatory part of the AFTT curriculum – and a key part of your training as a filmmaker. You must screen a cut of your film at all scheduled screenings, and you must attend the entire screening session(s), to support your peers and to learn from their discoveries.
On the day of the screening, please arrive early and transfer your film to the Submissions Hard Drive in your classroom before the start of class.
