What Makes Campus VFX Different

Specialized Training That Puts You First

Full-Time Industry Mentorship

Unlike programs with part-time staff, our instructors lead their departments throughout the entire workday. They don’t just teach a weekly class, they guide your projects, provide critiques through "dailies", and offer professional recommendations as you develop your reel. Our instructors are fully invested in your progress.

VFX Industry Recognition

Studios worldwide recognize the quality of Campus VFX (formerly Lost Boys) graduates. Our director maintains a close relationship with top recruiters, ensuring our curriculum stays ahead of industry needs and helping our students transition from the classroom to high-end production roles.

Live, Studio-Style Instruction

We don’t use pre-recorded lessons. Whether you study online or on-campus in Canada, every class is live and interactive. You’ll work in a simulated studio environment that mirrors real-world production, which prepares you for a professional career.

A Focused Path to Mastery

We prioritize specialized expertise over broad introductory coursework. By focusing on a single discipline from day one, you build the advanced proficiency required for high-end film and TV pipelines.

Small
Cohorts

We are intentionally boutique. By keeping our class sizes limited, we ensure every student is known by name. Our students often describe the environment as a "VFX family", a collaborative space where you aren’t just a seat in a classroom, but a future colleague.

Whether you study online or on-campus, our programs provide a live, instructor-led experience with no pre-recorded lessons. Online students remote into school systems to use professional VFX software in real time, mirroring the collaborative, studio-style environment found on-site.

Our 12-month programs are also available through a flexible hybrid model based in Montreal. This option divides your program into two 5.5-month phases, allowing you to begin online and transition to on-campus, while still earning the same industry-recognized credentials and professional demo reel.
