About Sheridan
Founded in 1967, Sheridan has grown from a local college of 400 students to one of Ontario’s leading postsecondary institutions, educating approximately 40,000 students every year on three campuses in three Ontario cities — Oakville, Brampton and Mississauga.
An award-winning institution, Sheridan attracts students from across Canada and around the world. Sheridan’s 220,000+ alumni play a critical role in shaping the future of our society in the fields of arts, business, community service, health, technology, and the skilled trades.
What do Top Gun: Maverick, The Mandalorian, Mufasa: The Lion King, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever have in common? They all harness the power of virtual production techniques which have revolutionized filmmaking by leveraging technologies such as augmented reality and advanced motion capture to create realistic environments and effects on a virtual set.
Through a 12-week Virtual Production micro-credential at Sheridan's Screen Industries Research and Training Centre (SIRT) at Pinewood Toronto Studios, students are gaining immersive, hands-on experience in this same cutting-edge tech.
A Sheridan Bachelor of Film and Television student documentary short was created to honour the last surviving Canadian Lancaster Bomber pilot. Third-year student Eric Cervania directed the six-minute project featuring retired Royal Canadian Air Force bomber pilot John 'Jack' Frederick Finan of Stoney Creek, Ont. The film was screened at last month's Hamilton Film Festival and also aired on Hamilton community television.
