If you were hoping to make a short film with great actors, funny original dialogue that looks like a million bucks, this course is for you. We discuss extensively lighting approaches, lighting diagrams and maps, audio recording, location work, set work, indoor comedy, steadicam, car to car, slider rigs and much more but all completely story focused.

This is the perfect course for someone wanting to make their own short film - that looks great, flows well and ultimately finds an audience.
