THINKING IN FRAME
Are you eager to write or direct a short film but unsure of where to start? The solution is simple: before you embark on your writing or directing journey, it’s essential to acquaint yourself with the language of film. That’s where “THINKING IN FRAME” comes in a six-week film course designed to nurture your filmmaker’s mindset.
This roundtable-style course aims to provide you with a foundation in film language. By the time you start writing your short film, you’ll be well-prepared to apply these principles effectively. Throughout the course, we’ll cover a variety of topics, including film terminology, parallel editing, building suspense, visual narratives, character in action, and basic script formatting. (And who knows, we might even enjoy some popcorn along the way!)
