Exclusive film making & acting classes offered for WAT students

This Catalyst program is supported by the US embassy in Albania and is guided by our professional instructors who have many years of TV & film industry experience working in Albania and the USA at places such as HBO, Netflix, Warner Brothers and more. Students will learn skills in acting, writing, directing, editing and cinematography as they produce their own projects to be showcased at our upcoming Catalyst Content Festival in Tirana!

The winners of the Albania national festival will be invited to join our global Catalyst festival in the USA so they can meet industry professionals and mentors, show their work to an international audience, and grow their job career networks. We hope that this program will promote self-expression and teamwork, inspire creativity, build confidence, and provide a fun environment for your child to explore the film industry while opening legitimate pathways to future job opportunities.
