Overview

About the Program

The Producers program at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) features a world-class faculty of studio and network presidents, Oscar and Emmy-winning producers, top entertainment lawyers and agents, and internationally-renown scholars. Students learn from the best and the most cutting-edge in their respective fields.

Understanding how to tell a good story and how to reach an audience are basic skills that every good producer possesses — whether for movies, television, Internet, mobile devices, video games or sports entertainment. For this reason the entire curriculum is built around the dual focus of development and strategy.

Because of its intimate size — only 15 students are admitted each year — the Program allows for personal attention and mentorship of each individual student. Every student is different and comes with his or her own unique set of ideas and interests. Giving each student a chance to grow personally and professionally is important to the faculty, mentors and administration of the Program. What combines all these different personalities is a passion for storytelling, excellence, teamwork and core humanistic values.
