Fall Session

Fundamentals of Filmmaking is a hands-on introduction to digital film production and the basic tools: camera, composition, scripting, lighting editing, crew roles and how to work as a team. Although the scope is introductory and basic, the approach is professional and the goal is to learn filmmaking the way it is done in the industry.
