Our Short Film Workshop is a hands-on class designed to introduce students to the art and craft of digital filmmaking. The workshop is an excellent exploration into the language of cinema and the tools of filmmaking, and can be taken either in-person or remotely.
Being a project-based workshop, each student writes, produces, directs and edits their own short film, while crewing on classmates' productions. Students can create a short fiction, documentary or music video project.
The course is taught through a hybrid model, which allows students maximum flexibility to take whichever parts of the course they need to remotely, but provides access to the hands-on style of teaching that is so valuable to developing filmmaking skills.
Every week students meet in-person for one full days of instruction and hands-on exercises. In addition, students gain access to custom videos and workbooks that will cover the basics of writing, producing, directing, cinematography and editing.
And for those taking the class 100% remotely, all in-person sessions will be live-streamed online, with the video recording available for all students.
In-person students have access to the professional filmmaking equipment at the school, including Canon cinema cameras, industry-standard lighting, grip and sound equipment and a state-of-the-art sound stage. Students edit their films using Adobe Premiere Pro. At the end of each workshop, students screen their films in front of their peers, friends and family.
The San Francisco Film School was founded by filmmakers with the core philosophy "the best way to learn the art and craft of filmmaking is to make films!"
At MediaTech, you get access to industry-standard facilities and equipment. Both campuses have real sound stages with an array of digital film cameras and production support equipment.
In this studio class, students will find and nurture their passion for filmmaking. In the film program, students shoot their own films with Canon DSLR cameras and learn how to direct or act in original scenes.
In this class, students will learn how screenplays are written, then get some practice in writing them. You’ll have a chance to write “minute movies” (just a page long), short screenplays (a few pages long), and scenes from full length movies.
In this class we will be working together to write, shoot, direct, edit and produce a short film. Members will work with staff to set up a production schedule, assign tasks, and find useful resources for their film.
Bring in an exposed roll of black and white film and we'll walk you through the process showing you step-by-step how to develop. Continue your journey in analog photography by following up with our B&W Darkroom Printing Workshop and make a print directly from your negatives.
