Description:

Here is an opportunity to learn how to make digital films and spend a foliage weekend lakeside in a rustic Adirondack lodge. During this unique weekend everyone will spend some time cross learning as we run four workshops simultaneously. We’ll meet together as actors, directors, location sound and writers for collaborative sessions and group exercises. You’ll split and join your department to practice specific skills during hands on workshops and finally the weekend will culminate as we come together to shoot a collaborative scene. You’ll learn actor techniques for active listening and improving character truth. You you’ll learn director skills including “industry standard” script break down procedures, camera blocking and shot sequencing. Everyone will participate in a writers brainstorm session and the soundman’s art of critical listening. The food will be abundant you’ll make new friends and have a blast. Just like camp!

This workshop begins with website download E-Learning and finishes with a 2 1/2 day workshop that includes lodging and full course meals.

 Who should take this workshop?

Anyone who is looking for a better understanding of filmmaking as a craft as well as insight into the disciplines including acting, directing, writing and sound will benefit form this cross pollination method. Individual workshops are designed for beginners with little to no experience. This is not only a great way to learn it’s also a great way to find collaborators for that short film of yours!
