Working together to promote technical professions in the field of image and sound

Since its creation, ESRA has placed technological innovation and excellence in expertise at the heart of its teaching. This commitment is fully embodied in its membership of FICAM (Federation of Cinema, Audiovisual and Multimedia Industries), which represents the interests of technical companies in the image and sound sectors in France.

As an active member of FICAM, ESRA is part of a leading professional network, guaranteeing its students training that is connected to the realities and demands of the industry.

Promoting diversity in the audiovisual professions

At ESRA, diversity is not an option, but an asset. In a sector that is still too homogeneous and unequal, the school is committed to opening up its training programs and networks to all voices, all backgrounds, and all experiences. It is in this spirit that it actively supports Divé+, an association founded by former students of the school that has become a reference on issues of diversity in the film and audiovisual professions.

Training for careers in the audiovisual industry with a focus on gender equality and diversity

As a major player in training for careers in film, audiovisual, sound, animation, and video games, ESRA has a strong social responsibility: to prepare new generations to create in a more just, inclusive, and representative world. It is in this context that the school is committed to working alongside Collectif 50/50, an association that promotes gender parity, equality, and diversity in the cultural industries.

ESRA at the heart of the global network of film schools

In an increasingly interconnected audiovisual world, ESRA affirms its commitment to training professionals who are technical, creative, and internationally minded. This ambition is reflected in its membership of two networks of excellence: CILECT (International Liaison Center for Film and Television Schools) and its European counterpart, GEECT (European Grouping of Film and Television Schools).
