By
design, this is a hands on practical application school. It has been
designed to help equip individuals with the necessary tools to craft
quality motion pictures of all kinds on little or no budget in small
development teams of 1-4 people.
Throughout the school, we will
be learning and implementing "guerilla film" techniques and putting into practice, designing and creating our own short films.
