Intro to Filmmaking is a detailed, hands-on introduction to the complete filmmaking process while producing a short digital film with High Definition (HD) cameras. Students will learn about the various aspects of pre-production, production, and post-production and will gain experience in different crew positions, all while making a quality 3-5 minute short film, with up to 4 characters, and up to 2 locations. This course will be open to ALL ages, but is ideal for those at least 16 years of age. The final film project will be premiered on a large screen at a local theater for friends and family, and students will receive a copy of the film for their portfolio.

There will be a minimum of two shooting days, as well as 1-2 actor audition days (dates/times to be determined in class, dependent on actor, student, and location availability) that will be held outside of regular class. Students as a group will also be responsible for providing craft services for the actors on shooting days.
Cost for the course is $595 and includes all access to film cameras and equipment. A $50 non-refundable deposit will be needed to secure the registration. Wanting to sign up for multiple classes? Check out our Package Options! Contact us to discuss registration, class location, and for directions.
