#FILM PRODUCTION HOW TO#

In this course, we move students beyond the introductory technical aspects of post-production techniques and introduce editorial styles and techniques that can be applied to both documentary and dramatic forms. By utilizing techniques such as advanced sound & picture editorial, mixing, and even simple visual effects, the knowledgeable filmmaker has the potential to create amazing creative experiences for audiences. Today, this explosion of advanced features available through the latest software and hardware allows filmmakers the opportunity for endless creative potential.

This course includes a combination of lectures, in-class exercises and workshops all of which lead to applying the key principles in their Term 1 Short Story projects and their pitch for the Term 2 Studio Intensive.Ĭurrent technological advances have introduced post-production solutions and quality that until quite recently, were far outside the ability of the average independent filmmaker.

Students will also learn how to create and pitch a design as part of the competition for the Term 2 Set Builds and Filming while learning to make effective design decisions for zero-budget shows to be filmed in Term 2. In Production Design 1, students will develop an understanding of each department that falls under and is associated with Production Design and the Art Department.

Working closely and creatively with the Director and Cinematographer, the Production Designer combines creative exploration, thinking, research, creating compelling visual concepts with the practical knowledge of illustrating, planning, building, budgeting, and overseeing the realization of their designs. The Production Designer’s role is to explore, define, create and build the visual world of the Story.
