Wajda School

In 2002, at the initiative of Andrzej Wajda and Wojciech Marczewski, the Andrzej Wajda Master School of Film Directing and the Andrzej Wajda Film Education Foundation were established in Warsaw. Both founders offered programs for professionals, unique in Europe at the time, combining education with film production. During these programs, experienced filmmakers collaborate with participants to develop the best artistic vision for their own projects—from script development, through documentation, cinematography, production, post-production, and finally, to film presentation. In 2011, the Andrzej Wajda Master School of Film Directing adopted the name Wajda School. The European Film Academy holds honorary patronage over the Wajda School.
