About us



Guided by industry. Driven by creativity

Boomsatsuma is an independent education provider based in Bristol and the South West. We provide degree and college courses that deliver creative industry training in filmmaking, photography, game design and digital media. Our curriculum is built with flexibility in mind, evolving alongside the industries we serve so that students are always prepared for what comes next. 

 

Why us?

What we’ve created at Boomsatsuma is more than a place of learning. It’s a community fuelled by support, ambition and mutual respect. A place where ideas matter. Where young people are heard. Where education isn’t about ticking boxes, but about transforming lives. And we’re only just getting started.

What makes us different

You're not just another student. We'll know your name, your goals, and how to support you every step of the way.



Bristol is your campus

You’ll be learning where the industry is, alongside film studios, production houses, photographic institutions, tech start ups and galleries in one of the UK’s most creative cities.



We connect you to the industry

Your course is designed to build real networks. With live briefs, industry placements and professional mentors, you’ll graduate with contacts and confidence.



Taught by creatives, not just lecturers

Our tutors are working professionals who bring the latest tools, trends and insights straight into the studio. You’ll learn from people who live what they teach.
