COURSE INFO

Discover the art of filmmaking in this hands-on Digital Filmmaking Workshop. Perfect for beginners, this course covers the entire production process—from storyboarding and scripting to directing, cinematography, sound, and editing—using industry-standard tools like Sony digital cameras and Adobe Premiere Pro CC.

Participants will collaborate in teams to create original short films, explore genres such as narrative, documentary, and experimental, and gain practical experience through on-location shoots.

The workshop concludes with a screening of participants’ films for friends and family.

— 

Please note:
This is a very hands-on workshop. Participants’ learning will be most effective if they are able to make all (or most) of the sessions, and will be able to shoot their short films during the period indicated in the schedule above.

As the workshop is repeated several times a year, participants may wish to register for a future round if they already know they may miss several lessons during this period. Make-up lessons and refunds are not offered for sessions missed.

PRE-REQUISITES

None. Participants will have access to use a prosumer HD camera and audio equipment on loan from Objectifs for their shoots, with free access to our digital lab (subject to availability and selected timeslots) to edit their films on Adobe Premiere Pro CC during the workshop.
