CINEMATIC STORYTELLING: FILMMAKING TECHNIQUES

Cinematic Storytelling includes a series of hands-on units and projects designed to build essential filmmaking techniques without the added complexity of crafting a full narrative. Students will focus on mastering key skills such as recording high-quality dialogue, setting up and manipulating lighting for different effects, capturing dynamic and visually engaging cinematography, and using editing software to create seamless and impactful sequences. These technical exercises allow students to concentrate on developing their craft, experiment with industry-standard tools, and gain confidence in their abilities to bring creative visions to life. 

By focusing on these foundational skills, students will be well-prepared to apply their expertise when they work on creating a full narrative film later in the year.
