Description
The focus of the Filmmakers Collective is on storytelling and developing the skill sets necessary to translate the written page onto the screen. This is the backbone of the program, in which every student has the opportunity to produce and direct their own final project. Along the way, technical aspects necessary to produce a final film — from discussions on operating cameras, to setting up lights, to capturing sound are covered. This program is designed to immerse the student from screenplay through post-production in an intensive course of study. Prepare to work evenings and weekends as necessary. Students participate in the following classes: Screenwriting, Directing, Working With Actors, Camera Tech, Lighting, Editing, and Producing. Every session is designed to build on the information from a previous session. For instance, screenplays developed in Screenwriting are workshopped Directing sessions. Attendance and participation is essential to the success of project completion. For
