The One Week Documentary Workshop is an intensive program that combines in-class instruction and hands-on production workshops, where students put into practice what they learn in the classroom by creating their own short documentary film.
Students learn the fundamental tools of documentary filmmaking including Directing, Cinematography, Lighting, Sound Recording, and Editing. Students apply what they learn by creating their own two minute observational or interview-driven documentary film. Following post-production of their project, students screen their work with their classmates and instructors and engage in critiques and discussion.
During the week, students are expected to spend some evening hours planning and shooting their films.
