The Los Angeles Film School was founded in 1999. [4] [5] The school was conceived and founded by married investors Paul Kessler, a financier, and Diana Derycz-Kessler, a Harvard-trained lawyer and entrepreneur, [6] [7] together with Thom Mount, and venture capitalist Bud MaLette. [2] [8] [9] [10] In 1998, the founders developed the idea for the school and made an initial investment of $2 million. [6] [11]

The first classes began in September 1999, and the school's first students graduated in July 2000. [9] [12] The founding faculty included Tom Schatz, professor of film, [13] William A. Fraker and Janusz Kamiński teaching cinematography, Jon Amiel and Donald Petrie teaching directing, Dede Allen teaching editing, Ron Judkins teaching sound production, and Joe Byron, Director of Technology. [9]

The school was originally funded by Kessler and Derycz-Kessler through their company Bristol Investments. [14] After 18 months, the couple bought out their partners in the school and Dercyz-Kessler became the CEO, [5] [11] [14] seeking to address overspending in a more active role. [5] The total investment in the school had grown to $15 million by 2001, including the installation of the professional equipment required for film production. [11] As of 2001, students at the school had created 700 short films. The total number of students was 150 full-time and approximately 30 part-time. [11]

In 2003, the school formed a partnership with several private equity investors. [15] In April 2011, a decision was made by ACCET to withdraw its accreditation of The Los Angeles Recording School. The decision was stayed on appeal, and the school was permitted to resign its accreditation amicably, following the transfer of remaining students to The Los Angeles Film School, [16] [17] which is accredited by the ACCSC. [2] [3]

In February 2010, employees of The Los Angeles Film School submitted authorization cards to the National Labor Relations Board in an effort to become unionized as part of the California Federation of Teachers. [4] [18] Following the controversial firing of a Los Angeles Film School employee and union organizer, and the litigation which led to her reinstatement, the group withdrew its petition for unionization. [19] [20] In July 2011, the school settled a dispute with a local farmers market, which regularly blocked access to a Los Angeles Film School parking garage. [21]

By 2011, the school's enrollment had grown to 1,800 students. [22] Derycz-Kessler had a 17-year tenure as CEO (from 2000 to July 2017). [23] Tammy Elliott is currently the school's president. [24]

[6] In 2001, the school opened a 345-seat, THX-certified theater featuring a Sony 4K projector. [2] [26] In 2006, the nearby six-story Klasky Csupo studio building (originally built in 1985 for a Mercedes-Benz dealership) [27] was purchased, which brought the total area of the campus to 230,000 square feet (21,000 m2). [15] [28] The campus also includes a 4,000 square feet (370 m2) sound stage and the 8,000 square feet (740 m2) Ivar Theater. [2] [29] [30] The school's main stage houses a 3,000 square feet (280 m2) set of a Victorian house, where students can produce television shows with industry professionals. [22] Overall, as of March 2011, $61 million had been invested in the buildings alone. [22]
