Give your creative side free reign this January! Using high quality digital cameras and editing equipment, learn both creative and technical aspects of filmmaking as you collaborate in small groups to produce a short film.

“A great introduction to the world of filmmaking, with loads of useful practical exercises and supportive instructors.” Lesley Branagan, Summer School graduate.

COURSE OUTLINE
From script development and storyboarding, to shooting and lighting, and finally to editing and grading using Final Cut Pro, all course participants will learn through a practical, hands-on approach. Working groups will be kept small to ensure that all participants get the opportunity to rotate through key crew roles and get first hand experience with operating equipment.

Tutors are all current film industry practitioners and specialists in their areas. The course includes screenings and master class sessions with inspiring, award-winning filmmakers.
This course is suitable for anybody interested in kick-starting their education and career in filmmaking.

At the end of the course, participants will be well equipped to make their own short film productions. Those who bring concepts that they wish to develop will receive expert advice and mentorship. Students will take home a DVD copy of their work at the end of the course.
