THE FOUND FOOTAGE FILM
Frightened by the blank canvas of film? Want to make a film but have no money? There are lots of good reasons to make a found footage film, and lots of found footage waiting for you to edit into a meaningful cinematic experience. In an age where the cultural landscape is dominated by a seemingly arbitrary volume of images, what could be more relevant than an entire genre dedicated to selecting and organizing moving images? This workshop will introduce people conceptually and practically to the Found Footage Film. In the morning you will be introduced to this fascinating genre through screenings and discussion. In the afternoon, working alone or collaboratively, everyone will begin creating a scene or short film by editing found footage. Then at the end of our day, we’ll screen your works together and discuss the cuts you’ve made.
The workshop is intentionally small for one-on-one time with the instructor and the equipment. And if you don’t quite finish your piece, not to worry! You will have access to the equipment at the Annex space for FREE for ONE WEEK as part of the cost of the workshop. Through the week, you can finish your film at your own leisure or re-edit it after you’ve had some feedback.

CINEMATIC STAGECRAFT SERIES: CHROMA AND ACTION MAPPING
Film design is both practical and conceptual. This workshop takes you through the intuitive and methodical processes of production design, exploring colour principles and storyboarding basics. 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 previous week’s workshop “Pictorial Zones” is recommended as a complimentary session in the Cinematic Stagecraft Series.
In this five hour workshop participants learn how to:
*Use principles of colour as they apply to sets and costume *Discern colour using language to convey ideas *Make cinematic concept illustrations *Draw the human figure as it applies to live action *Convey screen direction through storyboarding
