Script to Screen Narrative Filmmaking Workshop

 

Tell YOUR Stories, YOUR Way

 

 

Whether you're interested in filmmaking as a career, or you're just looking for a new challenge, the Script to Screen Workshop will help get you in the game. Working in teams with others who have your level of experience and training, this 3 1/2-day workshop lets you experience the entire movie making process. You'll begin with pre-production (coming up with an idea, writing a script, assembling equipment and props, organizing and scheduling the production), move on to production (directing, acting, shooting, sound recording) and post-production (editing, creating titles, adding music), and conclude with a premiere public screening of your movie.

 

Students who have their own cameras are encouraged to bring them. You may also bring a story or story idea for a short film. Keep in mind that the film will be under 10 minutes long and will be made in three and a half days, so your story should be tell-able in 3 or 4 scenes. Your story should not include any violent acts--if a violent act is central to the story, it must be referred to and not take place on-screen.

 

The registration deadline is July 10, 2010.
