About
This is a 7-week, entry-level workshop that will introduce students to the basics of post-production narrative workflows. Those with little to no experience are encouraged to join. This is will be a hands-on learning environment where you will be learning while you assemble your own short film.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
- Using footage that was filmed during Filmmaking Fundamentals: Narrative (Spring Quarter), participants will learn how to turn their footage into a film. Through hands-on workshops and demos participants will walk through the whole post-production process and edit a short film. Participants will learn how to log and ingest footage, editing techniques in Adobe Premiere Pro, motion graphic techniques in Adobe After Effects, post-production sound mixing, and post-production color correction.
- Participants will be given weekly access to our editing lab and will be able to work on their edits.
- Students will deliver their final projects and they will be screened in our theater.
