TEACHING
William Tyler Smith has been teaching since he was the film post-production TA at UCLA Graduate School of Theater, Film and Television. At UCLA, Smith also served as a TA for other directing, cinematography and sound classes. He is a directing instructor held in high esteem at The New York Film Academy (NYFA). He is known for his "unorthodox" and inspirational teaching style. Many of his ex-students are enjoying successful film careers in their respective countries.
He was recently named one of the top 15 most notable art professors in New York City by the artcareerproject.com.
Smith is also available as a consultant for your professional productions. Everyday I comment and critique on screenplays, rough cuts, pre-production, production and post-production, whether it's a fiction or documentary or experimental film.
