The first day is jumping right into the pre-production process. We will start to learn roles and responsibilities for the first week and how to work like a well-oiled machine on-set. Student's will then travel off campus for location scouting, learning about how to choose a good location and why. Students round out week one with 3 days of intense, on-set production and shooting. Week two then shifts into the Post Production Studio where Students will be editing their versions of the projects personally with guided help from instructors.
Requires previous experience with DSLRs and editing software. Recommended to take one of our teen courses first.
