Some programs, like the Sundance Institute Film Scoring Program, have shut down, while others have managed to launch and survive during the pandemic. The Film Scoring Academy of Europe makes its debut on this list, and another new program, at Brooklyn College/Cuny’s Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema, offers a master of fine arts degree in media scoring.
