Train with professional equipment used in real productions

Equipment & Production Facilities

At Prague Film Institute, you’ll work with professional filmmaking equipment, including cameras such as Arri Alexa, Sony VENICE, and RED V-RAPTOR and premium lenses like Arri Ultraprime, Arri Masterprime, and Cooke.
