Key Summary
About : The Summer Filmmaking Program offers an immersive experience for aspiring filmmakers. Participants will engage in hands-on projects, learning essential skills in scriptwriting, directing, and editing. This program focuses on collaborative work, providing students with a platform to create and develop their own short films. The course duration is intensive, encouraging creativity and artistic expression in a supportive environment.
Career Outcomes : Graduates can pursue various career paths in the film industry, including positions as film directors, screenwriters, or editors. Other avenues include roles in production assistance or advertising companies. The skills gained here can lead to opportunities in entertainment, media, and digital content creation.
The Five-Week Intensive focus is on storytelling and developing the skill sets necessary to translate the written page onto the screen. This is the backbone of our program, in which every student produces and directs their own 4-6 minute finished project. Along the way, we will cover the technical aspects necessary to produce a final film - everything from operating cameras to setting up lights and capturing sound.
