Students will explore how a film set works, essential craft skills, crew roles, post-production requirements and the managerial and collaborative practices essential to the successful completion of screen-based work.

Detailed practical exercises in topics such as budgeting, scheduling, and contracting cast and crew will give students a solid grounding in leading and executing screen projects. This will culminate in the collaborative production of a short screen work.
