Hello local filmmakers!
Behind the Scenes: Filmmaking for Beginners
Join our six-week filmmaking series and discover the creative process behind bringing stories to life on screen!
Each two-hour session explores a different element of film production — from scriptwriting and directing to camera work, lighting, and sound.
No experience is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to learn.
If you already have a script, storyboard, or even just an idea, bring it along!
Cost: $60 for all six workshops (that’s only $10 per session!)
Spaces are limited — book your spot today!
Open to ALL ages!
Workshop Schedule:
#1 – 8 Nov: Introduction to filmmaking equipment.
Set up and shoot your first short scene.
#2 – 15 Nov: Learn more about cameras, lenses, and lighting.
Practice directing and acting.
#3 – 22 Nov: Analyse famous film scenes, then create and film your own.
#4 – 29 Nov: Explore editing concepts and film a new scene with different techniques.
#5 – 6 Dec: Create your own short film or scene – hands-on filming and directing.
(You need your own script for this. If you don't have a script you can help others with their scenes.)
#6 – 13 Dec: Final production – complete your short film or scene.
(Subject to the amount and length of films created)
You can participate hands-on or simply observe — it’s entirely up to you.
Be prepared if you want to complete your scene or film!
