Studio School Los Angeles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Studio School Los Angeles was a performing arts and film school located in downtown Los Angeles. The school was founded in 2013 by Glenn Kalison, American actor, producer[1] and entrepreneur, as Relativity School with the former film studio, Relativity Media.[2] The name was changed to Studio School in 2017 following Relativity Media's bankruptcy.[3] Hussian College Los Angeles initially launched its accredited BFA programs in October 2014, as a branch campus of Philadelphia's Hussian School of Art, and did so in affiliation with a major film studio.[4] Recently, the Studio School Los Angeles name was changed to Hussain College Los Angeles (HCLA), and later to Hussain College - In Studio, its current name.

The school graduated its inaugural class in Spring 2018 in a commencement ceremony that took place at historic Mack Sennett Studios. Ikumi Yoshimatsu, Japanese actress and social activist, and Lance Young, former DreamWorks Animation head of Creative Affairs[5] gave the commencement addresses.[6]
