Make Your Mistakes on Paper, Not on Film!

Visually planning your film project is critical to the success of your project – because it’s much less expensive to make mistakes on paper than on film. Alex Zamm, a seasoned and savvy filmmaker, will teach you the rarely taught art of making the film in your head before the cameras start to roll.

You’ll learn how to:

• Translate words into pictures and develop clear visual thinking
• Use the tools of the trade – shot lists, storyboards, illustrations, models, photos and computer simulations – to explore ideas and communicate effectively with your colleagues
• Gather visual reference materials

Whether it’s a movie, a TV show, a documentary, a music video, or a commercial, the process is the same – and this class is one of the few places outside of film school where you can learn it!
