June 6th - July 2nd, 2010

Filmmaking Auditions

Filmmaking Faculty



Filmmaking students are introduced to both the theory and technical aspects of filmmaking. Through lectures, films and hand-on experiences, students will learn the three aspects of filmmaking: pre-production, production, and post-production. Students will be taught all aspects of camera, lighting and grip equipment, sound equipment and editing software.

Students will learn:

• the process of brainstorming to come up with their final story

• to write the script

• to line the script

• to breakdown the script

• to schedule the shoot

• to find actors and location

• to shoot the film
  
  Each student will fulfill a crucial crew position on the set and using the same protocol as is conducted in Hollywood studios. Student projects will include Self-portrait, Process, and a 5-10 minute Narrative Short as the final project which will be submitted to the Nashville Film Festival.
