This paper examines the pedagogical frameworks that inform the teaching of international film production collaboration at the master’s level. Through an analysis of current educational practices, industry integration mechanisms, and the evolving landscape of European co-production models, this research illuminates how higher education institutions prepare emerging filmmakers for the complexities of transnational cinema production. The findings suggest that effective pedagogical approaches must synthesise theoretical knowledge with practical industry engagement, whilst fostering networks that transcend national boundaries. This research contributes to the ongoing discourse on film education methodologies by proposing a more holistic approach to preparing students for the increasingly globalised nature of contemporary film production.
