reputation
Created and animated by professionals from the creative industries, ARTFX was one of the 1st schools to offer a course in 3D animation and special effects. It is ranked among the 10 best creative schools worldwide in special effects, video games, and animation. The school’s reputation, which has close ties with the greatest studios in the world, ensures that its students have a professional integration rate of 95% (with 70% of alumni working internationally).

Welcome
to France!
ARTFX chose not to open campuses abroad, to attract talent from all over the world to France and train them with the “French touch”, synonymous with technical excellence and creativity. With more than 65 nationalities among the current students at the school, it operates with a beneficial cultural mix. 100% English-speaking international classes are open starting in the 1st year, and then progressively, all classes switch over to being taught in English to prepare all students for an international career.
Accompaniment of
international students
In each ARTFX campus, a referent ensures the reception and integration of foreign students and their development throughout their studies. This referent can be contacted as soon as you are admitted to the school to prepare for your arrival. A guide in English is provided to each student to facilitate the administrative procedures related to their arrival in France and to facilitate their integration into local life.
