Participants in this hands-on production course will learn the basics of short film storytelling and after developing a script and storyboard for a 4-7 minute film, will carry out the various pre-production tasks, including casting and location scouting, after which they will shoot and edit their films. While good production values will of course be a concern, the main emphasis will be on understanding the nature of short film storytelling and learning to identify and to solve storytelling problems.
