This course gives the beginning filmmaker
a fundamental understanding of the digital filmmaking process, starting from
preproduction and going through production to post- production and delivery.
Through lectures, screenings and hands-on practical learning, the students will
learn the jobs and responsibilities of the each member of a film crew, proper
on- set procedures and protocols, and understand the fundamentals of
screenwriting, casting, working with actors, camera techniques, directing and
editing. Over the course of the class, each student will take a film project
from inception to completion by applying the techniques learned throughout the
course. This course will combine practical with theoretical learning in helping
students gain a solid foundation in digital filmmaking.
