“The Art and Craft of the Director – How to Become a
Successful Working Film Director” is a 3 day film directing
workshop that will be held in Vancouver, Canada on February
17,18,19, 2006
This workshop focuses on what I believe to be the director’s
most important role in any film/video medium – understanding
the story, determining the intent of each scene and knowing
the objectives of the characters.
When you know how to do this efficiently, you then have the
foundation from which to create your visual style and the
means to get believable performances from actors.
For three days, participants will have the opportunity to meet
filmmakers from around the world; to share their personal
experiences with others; and learn more about this
creative and fascinating career we have chosen.
