MAY 2012 BASIC FILMMAKING WORKSHOP (7:00PM - 10:00PM)
MAY 2012 BASIC FILMMAKING WORKSHOP
Tue May 1, 2012 at 7:00 PM

The Basic Filmmaking Workshop is a series of workshops held over a
five week period during evenings and some weekends, and provides an
intensive introduction to all aspects of independent filmmaking.
All steps and processes are covered from creative conception to the
final cut - including the basics of screenwriting, directing, camera
operation, lighting, sound and film editing. During the course
participants will be exposed to the process of shooting and editing a
short film and short video and will do so as a group.
The purpose of the course is to give participants a feeling for the
various areas involved in film / video production. Our main goal is to
provide basic training to support the development of emerging
filmmakers who will go on to work on their own independent films. At

in film, including screenwriters, directors of photography and editors.
