Filmmaking Foundation Course

Designed for beginners and those with a little experience to introduce the techniques required and instil the confidence needed to begin making short films. Covering the key elements of the filmmaker, participants work in a professional TV studio and editing suite. Members of this course form a close knit crew to gain hands-on experience in planning, lighting, camera operating and editing. Focusing on pre-production, production and post production participants gain skills to plan, capture and edit everything needed to create a ‘course project’ short film completed by the end of the course.

Structured for those who want to access intensive practical filmmaking training, but can only commit to a part-time schedule. Led by a professional filmmaker, using current sound recording, lighting equipment and DSLR cameras the course is structured over ten x 3 hour weekly sessions and is located at our central London, Soho studios.
