Lycée De La Communication

Presentation

The Lycée de la Communication is a public institution in Metz specialized in the fields of image, sound, and communication. It is one of the French lycées offering the BTS Métiers de l'audiovisuel, a selective national program structured around several options, making it an important entry point for students in the Grand Est region wishing to train in the technical trades of film and television.

Programs and strengths

The institution offers several options of the BTS Métiers de l'audiovisuel, including:

• Métiers de l'image (camera work, shooting, color grading);
• Gestion de la production (preparation, budget, production management, team coordination);
• Techniques d'ingénierie et exploitation des équipements (technical chain, broadcasting, systems maintenance).

In addition, there are other post-baccalaureate tracks and secondary-level courses oriented toward communication and applied arts, forming a coherent whole that allows progression from lycée to short-cycle higher education.

The teaching approach of the BTS audiovisuel relies largely on team-based practice: shoots, studio exercises, group projects, and internships in companies, with interdisciplinary work between the different options, as on a real set.

Who it is for

This type of program suits students aiming for quick professional integration as a technician or assistant (image, production, operations), or further studies at a film school or specialized licence. Selection is made via Parcoursup, based on application and motivation; it is advisable to check directly with the institution which options are open each year.
