FILMMAKING FUNDAMENTALS
Our program covers the three fundamental areas of movie-making:
PRE-PRODUCTION
These courses cover all the theory, skills and techniques needed in the stage that comes before shooting a film - to give you all the preparation you need to proceed on to production. This stage involves the screenwriting, film history, producing and production management, and film business and entrepreneurship courses.
PRODUCTION
We put filmmaking equipment in your hands to make your films, letting you polish your skills in the effective use of state-of-the-art filmmaking technology - including cinema cameras, LED light fixtures, digital sound recorders and other support equipment. Techniques used in cinematic storytelling are taught so you can make great-looking and effective films.
POST PRODUCTION
After you shoot your film, you will need to put it all together! In the Post-Production courses, you will learn how to effectively use industry-standard professional software and hardware to edit your film, sound design its soundtrack, and create exciting visual effects to make your storytelling pop!
