The Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS), formerly Australian Film and Television School, is Australia's national screen arts and broadcast school. The school is a Commonwealth Government statutory authority.
History
Established in 1972 as the Australian Film and Television School, as part of the Commonwealth Government's strategy to promote the development of Australia's cultural activity, AFTRS was opened to students in 1973, with the first intake of 12 students including directors Gillian Armstrong, Phillip Noyce and Chris Noonan.Шаблон:Cn
In 1973 Jerzy Toeplitz was appointed Foundation Director of the School and after six years in the role was awarded the Order of Australia and the AFI's Longford Lyell Award.Шаблон:Cn
In 1975 Gough Whitlam helped to create funding agencies to support the film school.Шаблон:Cn
Campus
For many years AFTRS was located in purpose-built premises at North Ryde, Sydney. In 2008 the school relocated to a purpose-built facility adjacent to Fox Studios, located inside the Entertainment Quarter in Moore Park, Sydney. While it owned the previous facilities, it now pays rent at its new location at a rate which has forced its leaders to cut resources previously allocated to educating its students.
AFTRS is the only screen and broadcast school in the world to cater for all of the specialisations under the one roof,and as they say, jack of all trades, master of none. The campus includes: a full-size 5.1 sound theatre (seats 126), state-of-the-art mix theatre, two large professional film and television studios, film studios, state-of-the-art sound recording studios, and a host of other facilities and equipment, much of which is off limits to many students.[1]
Also located on campus is the Jerzy Toeplitz Library, of which former "CEO" Sandra Levy once asked, "Why do we need a library? It's a film school." Шаблон:Cn
