1-Semester Filmmaking Workshop

Learn How To Direct a Short Film at NYFA

During the 1-Semester Filmmaking Workshop, students create short films and video content for their own reel. Similar to all NYFA’s film programs, students learn-by-doing, rapidly buildng filmmaking skills by writing, shooting, directing, and editing their own original films and content. This workshop is a great fit for aspiring filmmakers and creatives interested in learning the essentials of making their own films and video content.

Program DescriptionProgram Name: 1-Semester Filmmaking Workshop

From day one, students participate in an intensive sequence of classes such as Directing, Screenwriting, Digital Camera Technique, Lighting, Digital Editing, and Directing Actors, building essential knowledge in the filmmaking process. Throughout the program, students explore the dramatic mechanics of motion picture storytelling while mastering the critical collaboration between actors and directors.

At the end of the workshop, students can invite family and friends to an exclusive screening. Often, graduates of the 1-Semester Workshop enroll in NYFA’s 1-Year Filmmaking Program to continue their film studies. Please note that the NYFA Australia version of this semester-long program is condensed and and is called the 10-Week Filmmaking Workshop.
