What graduates say about SAE
“As SAE students, we were guided through every stage of the filmmaking process, from pre-production to post-production. Using the skills we developed throughout the course, we created a solid shooting plan for our final short film that covered everything from budgeting to the shot list, ensuring a smooth and efficient production.”
Jovian Ubukata
Bachelor of Film, graduated 2024
“Being able to finish my degree and start my career at the age of 19 was a huge plus for me, as it meant I got four years in the industry before I started my business.”
Eliza Allard
SAE Alumni | Current Job: Director/Founder, The Content Lab
“If you’re thinking about enrolling at SAE just do it! You never know who you will meet, where you will go or what you will do next. The knowledge and skills I learnt at SAE are invaluable and I encourage any creative to attend an open day and see what it’s like. It may be the start of an amazing story for yourself!”
Sophie Ryder
Bachelor of Audio, graduated 2022
“I always had the dream of working for a large studio like ILM, Pixar or Dreamworks, so to actually be a part of these huge projects now is amazing.”
Enrico Leasa
SAE Alumni | Current Job: Layout artist at Industrial Light & Magic
“I chose to study at SAE because it offered the ideal balance between hands-on experience and academic learning. The practical aspect was particularly valuable, as it allowed me to familiarise myself with industry-standard equipment and workflows, and on the academic side, the program encouraged deeper analysis and critical thinking. This individual guidance was instrumental in helping me grow as a filmmaker, allowing me to improve quickly and effectively. SAE was the place where I learned how to get my work out into the world and how to properly showcase it to a wider audience and earn the awards I have today.”
Mia Charleson
Bachelor of Film (Production), graduated 2024
“Getting the chance to collaborate with other students on your course and in other disciplines was really beneficial – it was a great insight into the audio industry.”
Luke Elliott
SAE Alumni | Current Job: Engineer & creator of recording device called Pitchi
“I’ve always had a passion for music production, and being in a wheelchair and living with cerebral palsy hasn’t stopped me. SAE has provided me with the opportunities to learn and grow, through supportive staff and new friends who believe in my abilities. Having visited a couple of higher education providers, I felt SAE [Melbourne] could offer me more support with my education and accessibility. I’ve really enjoyed the practical elements my course – as creatives we don’t like doing the academic parts so much!”
