For the best part of a decade, superhero and comic book franchises have undoubtedly dominated global cinema. The dazzling spectacle of superhuman, mid-air combat is irresistible and requires a huge team of highly skilled technicians, ranging from green-screen VFX crews, stunt coordinators and of course high-wire aerial experts.

The school believes that its students should be the best they can be, and attract an eclectic mix of participants from around the world.
