June 20 – August 8th 2-4pm
Instructor: Leo Allanach
In this 8-week class, we will be learning how to write a short film, choosing a script written by a class member, and then producing the film to be submitted to the Silverton Arts Festival in August. We will go over each part of the filmmaking process, from development to post-production, and work together as a film crew to bring a story to life! This is both a short film school and a short (as in mini) film school. You will walk away having learned the basics of screenwriting, producing, cinematography, lighting, sound, and editing.
The time commitment is 16 hours of in-class work, plus filming days (length and date TBD), as well as any outside prep required of your specific role within the crew. Materials used (camera, props, etc) will depend on what the group has readily available to them (iphones are okay!). The goal is to be creative with resources that are easy for you to access.
WHAT TO BRING TO THE FIRST CLASS:
- A laptop for notes and access to resources that will be shared
- A potential story idea for a short film
