Description

This class is a film making workshop focused on conceptualising, designing, shooting, and editing a very short film. In the first section of the course students will pitch projects and a selection of scripts/proposals will be chosen for production. The second section of the course will involve forming teams to produce each project. Students will be able to specialise in various roles. All students will be involved in the post-production process for the film they work on. The nature of the work involved in this course will require compulsory attendance at all workshops.
