Filmmaking 12-Week Intensive: B/W-MOS and Color-Sync Sound

 

X34.9522 / $7,495
FALL 2008
Continuing Education: Film, Video and Broadcasting

 

Over twelve weeks, you’ll have the opportunity to create your own film: color negative, synch sound, and about eight to ten minutes long. Students begin by learning the basics of 16mm filmmaking as award winning faculty instruct on 16mm Arriflex cameras, lighting for film, audio recording, and non-linear editing with Final Cut Pro. Lectures and demonstrations cover important filmmaking skills such as cinematography and sync-sound production. Working with a production crew of fellow students, you initially complete a series of short exercises using black-and-white film, then evolve to work on your own final color sync-sound short film.

Students can enroll in four, eight, or the full 12 weeks of this program, which offers the best value and the most complete preparation for a career in film.
