Basic Filmmaking Workshop

The Basic Filmmaking Workshop is a series of workshops held over a 2-month period during evenings and some weekends, and provides an intensive introduction to independent filmmaking.

All steps and processes are covered from creative conception to the final cut – including the basics of screenwriting, directing, camera operation, lighting, sound and film editing.

During the course, the participants will be exposed to the process of shooting and editing a short film and short video.

*Note: This in-person workshop is limited to 10 participants. While masks are no longer required to be worn in indoor public spaces in Manitoba, individuals are recommended to wear a mask in our Production Centre.
