Film design is both practical and conceptual. This workshop helps you to develop methodical ways to transpose a screenplay into a game plan for production design. Using reading skills, analysis and application, we will cover methods and principles that can be used for any scale of project. Participants may want to use the session as an opportunity for pre-production planning for a project already in development. The preceding workshops “Pictorial Zones” and “Chroma and Action Mapping” are recommended as complimentary sessions in the Cinematic Stagecraft Series.
In this three hour evening workshop participants learn how to:
* Classify sets, props, costume, special effects with regard to screen direction * Prepare a staging area * Format a budget and crewing plan * Anticipate legal and clearance issues * Put together an expendables kit * Assemble a tool kit
