<p>What I mean is something like a film festival or a student filmmakers’ organization. I couldn’t find anything specific through Google / the Harvard website, but of course, I probably missed something. Thanks :)</p>
<p>There are opportunities to do student productions etc., but Harvard is not a film school. If you want that type of experience, I recommend NYU or USC. You will be really disappointed at Harvard.</p>

<p>I agree with sadovaya. </p>
<p>If you want to be able to pursue your interest in filmmaking without being a film major, however, Harvard offers lots of opportunities including the chance to take independent studies in film. As long as students can find a willing faculty member, Harvard allows students to take independent studies in anything they wish.</p>
<p>Interesting article about how student filmmakers pursue their interest:</p>
<p>"Video camera and microphone in hand, Ceridwen Dovey ’03 traveled to a winery in Western Cape, South Africa, to film her thesis for her joint concentration in Social Anthropology and Visual and Environmental Studies (VES).</p>
<p>And her experience as a film student in VES is not unique. Film projects have brought film students like Dovey to dorm rooms, community theatres, boxes at women’s football games and local sex shops. And this year, a students in a sophomore film class are spending spare time videotaping and interviewing anglers in Boston.</p>
<p>But outside of a few VES concentrators and film aficionados, Harvard has never been known for its filmmaking program. While theater has a notable presence in campus life, film seems content to be quietly tucked away in lesser-known VES offices in Sever Hall.</p>
<p>Students in the department say they get equipment and instruction that rivals even professional film schools. And many say the department has allowed them to follow opportunities—like visiting South Africa—that wouldn’t otherwise be possible."
