I feel driven in this field like I never have in any other. I am inspired and excited. And filmmaking is not just a dream for me, it's the next thing I'm going to do.

16mm Film Crew On Set16mm Film Crew On Set
Students in the Film Production Process class shoot their own non-sync* 16mm film. The class is divided into groups of 5-7 people. Each group takes full responsibility for their projects as they write the scripts, prepare storyboards, cast actors, scout and secure locations, and finally shoot their project. Weekly class sessions cover scripting, shot lists and storyboards, budgeting, location scouting, permit procedures, casting, art direction, and advanced production skills. All footage is carefully analyzed and critiqued in class.

This course is meant to be taken after the Tools of Production course. Though that course leads directly into The Film Production Process course, students do not have to have taken the Tools of Production course immediately prior to this one in the schedule. It is fine to have taken Tools of Production, or its predecessor course, Hands on Film II, in a past year.

Access to the camera and lighting package and film and processing costs are included in the lab fee. Other costs associated with production and the refundable equipment deposit are the student's responsibility.
*"Non-sync" means that though there is no dialogue synced with the picture, the film still has full music, sound effects and narration.
