7 Day Film Course - Important Information - Please Read
What does it take to Make a Low or Micro-Budget Short or Feature Film that gets seen by a Worldwide Audience.
- Knowledge
- Mentorship
- Deadline
- Just do it.
This Course will clearly outline to you what is involved in Making a Film. The Seven Day Course goal is that you will know what steps you need to take to start Your Film Production or/and Film Career.
At the End of this short online film course, you will have your roadmap clearly marked out and your strategy in place to Make Your Own Film. That is a Film that gets seen in Film Festivals and gets seen online around the world.
You can make your Film Now.
It is only a matter of committing to making the film. The very first thing to do is set a Deadline for your Shoot.
When are you going to Shoot your Film? We recommend maximum three months from Day One from creating the idea to shooting a 10 Minute Short Film. Notice I stress shooting.
Not completing. It will take another three months to post-produce your film.
This is exactly the period we take to prepare and make a 3 Day Shoot happen on our Practical Hands On 4 Month Filmmaking Course in Melbourne.
For A Micro Budget Feature 90 minute Film it should be a maximum of Six Months from Day one (creation of Idea) to First Day of Shooting.
Anything else is Procrastination. Once the shoot is over, a further 2.5 months on Post Production for Short Film and 6- 9 Months For a Feature Film is the maximum amount of time needed.
The above schedule is for Quality and is not a Speedo Gonzales approach. When we make our own feature films , it is a meticulous and fastidious approach that pays off with a great film
This course will show you how you could make a film and what you need to do to make it.
It will crystallise the Actions needed to do this
At the end of the Seven Sessions course, you can decide what you want to do in terms of achieving your goal.
This Course is to help potential emerging or experienced Filmmakers or Beginners, overview the work involved in Making a Film and decide on the action steps needed to get there.
