In this class we'll create and film a short independent movie from scratch. Students are free to act in it, help write or choose a script, and help out on crew. (It's also fine to just sit back and watch and take notes, if you like.) LET'S MAKE A MOVIE is a fun way to find out what it feels like to be in front of the camera (or behind it), and is helpful for people thinking about producing movies of their own. The instructor has produced over thirty shorts and four full length features, and has taught acting and filmmaking for over ten years. His films have played in major international film festivals.
LET'S MAKE A MOVIE
is:
- a FILM class where you'll learn how movies are made, step by
step
- an ACTING class where students who want to be in the movie,
can get some experience acting for the camera (you can choose
whether to act in the movie, help out on crew, or just watch and
take notes)
- and a PRODUCTION class where you'll have fun while actually
making a short independent movie with the rest of the class.
People often ask what the difference is between Let's Make a Movie and Acting for the camera. The answer is, in Let's, the focus is on actually making a short film. We're rushing to meet a deadline (the film has to be finished by the last meeting) so there's not a lot of time for training for the actors. Acting for the camera is more focused on individual training for actors, and teaches students a range of important skills related to acting when a camera is rolling. They may sound similar but are very different classes. If you're not sure which class to take, email Nilsosmar@gmail.com or call 206-420-1309 and we can help you figure it out.
