WHAT’S INCLUDED

1 x Monthly Live Lesson

Every month, Aya looks at where members are actually stuck right now, and prepares a masterclass built around solving that specific challenge. This could be around personal branding, client acquisition, pricing your offers, pre-production, brand deals etc. Show up live or watch the replay. Either way, you leave with something you can implement immediately.

Your Mentor

Hey, I'm Aya and I'm the founder of Her Film School.

I built and ran my own film production company, directing campaigns for some of the biggest brands out there: DJI, Corona, Adobe, the Olympics.

Along the way I picked up a Young Director's Award nomination at Cannes.

Now I teach women how to build the same thing for themselves, minus the six years I spent figuring it out the hard way.

Is this for you?

You get real support along the way, wherever you're starting from. Whether you're already working as a filmmaker, or just starting out, you get bi-weekly live calls, Q&A sessions and direct mentorship from the best female filmmakers in the industry, plus real feedback on your actual work.

You also get invited to exclusive retreats and a community of female filmmakers building the same thing you are, so you're never figuring it out alone. All for $29 a month, because real mentorship shouldn't be locked behind a price tag you have to save up for.

→ Calls are bi-weekly, on Tuesday at 4pm UK time

→ Can't make it live? Every call gets recorded and stays in the community for you to watch anytime

→ Guest coach sessions are added throughout the year on top of the regular calls

→ Retreat dates get announced inside the community as they're planned

What students say

I would recommend Her Film School to ANYONE!

Spoiler: I never expected a course to change the way I see myself. But that’s exactly what happened. I joined Her Film School at a point where I already had some experience from the corporate world of videography, but creatively I felt like just "another videographer or editor."

The biggest win for me is clarity and seeing the whole process. Now I can articulate what I do, why I do it & what kind of projects I want to attract.

I would recommend Her Film School to ANYONE who has made it this far reading this. No matter where you are in your journey.

@tejalisjak

What I love about Her Film School is the transparency.

When I first started my filmmaking journey, I had so many questions, and not many people shared the actual numbers and details I really wanted to know.

Aya has not only created a space where filmmakers can grow their skills but also connect with like-minded people, which,
as a creator myself, I really appreciate.

Best investment I’ve made.

It’s scary to invest in yourself. To commit time and money towards a vision or dream you’ve always had.

I can say wholeheartedly that Her Film School is one of the best investments I’ve made in myself in a very long time.

Walking out of this course, I feel more invigorated, prepared, and overall more ready than ever.

Alyssa Barros

@madeintahoefilms

I did exactly what Aya teaches and ended up landing a client which really boosted my confidence.

Since starting my business just over a year ago, I knew that technical camera skills would only take me so far. That’s when I came across Her Film School.

This course was exactly what I needed and it’s helped me in so many ways. Not only did I learn and apply practical tools for running a creative business, but my confidence has grown immensely.

I highly encourage female filmmakers to join this course if they’re ready to grow in their craft and confidence.

Her Film School teaches you how to make money with your passion...

HFS teaches you how to make money with your passion, not just live this passion.

Aya is sooo generous with her knowledge, and she shared more than what I expected, plus, being part of her mission of supporting women in the production world was a blast.

I recommend it to every woman in this field no matter the level of experience that you have.

My storytelling has taken on a fresh, powerful new voice.

I’ve worked as a photographer and filmmaker for years, but I’ve always struggled with one thing: feeling like an outsider in such a male-dominated industry.

Discovering Her Film School and Aya was an instant relief. Suddenly, my challenges weren’t just mine; they were shared, understood, and validated.

After completing the course I got so much more. Thanks to Her Film School, my confidence has transformed, and my storytelling has taken on a fresh, powerful new voice.

If you’re serious about filmmaking, I can’t recommend Her Film School enough!

I honestly can’t believe how much changed for me after joining Her Film School. Within days of starting, I was already on set shooting an award-winning short film and editing footage from the Olympics (things I never thought I’d be doing at this stage of my career).

Aya is a filmmaking genius! Her insights into the business of filmmaking were a game-changer. She broke down how the industry really works, how to position myself (especially as a woman), and how to actually connect with the right people. Because of that, I had the confidence to reach out and build relationships… and it’s already paying off.

If you’re serious about filmmaking, I can’t recommend Her Film School enough. It’s not just about learning, it’s about unlocking doors, building your career, and doing it all with an awesome group of women!
