WIN 183 - Four-Week Film School

Institution:

Franklin College - Indiana

Subject:

Description:

Using the Franklin College campus as a backdrop, students will conceive, write, direct, and edit a four- to seven-minute student-produced narrative short film or music video. The course instruction will guide students through the pre-production, production, and post-production phases of the filmmaking process; as well as provide students with the terminology necessary to evaluate the craft of filmmaking critically. The major elements that will be covered in class include screenplay formatting, conceptualization, storyboarding, framing, shooting coverage, and editing. As part of this class, students should expect to spend a significant amount of time (approximately 50 hours) outside of class both on set for their project and as crew members for their classmates' projects. Through classroom instruction and hands-on production students will gain a greater understanding of the components of film as a storytelling art form, as well as gain experience in the creation of this art themselves. A fee of $50 will be required for the purchase of DVDR discs for use in the video camera and for the screening of the final edit.
